VfB Stuttgart is currently at the center of transfer rumors, particularly concerning Angelo Stiller. The talented midfielder has been a highly sought-after player for months, and a release clause in his contract could allow him to make a move this summer. According to reports from 'Sport Bild' and 'Bild', there is a clear trend regarding the future of the 25-year-old. His contract runs until 2028, but the clause allows him to leave for around 36.5 million euros. Stuttgart, however, may have the option to buy Stiller out of this clause for two million euros.

Another interesting aspect is that the validity of this clause depends on the performance of the German national team at the 2026 World Cup. The earlier the DFB team exits, the sooner the clause could expire. Currently, VfB Stuttgart has no offers for Stiller, making a stay beyond the summer more likely. The online portal 'Absolut Fußball' even reports that Stiller could continue to wear the jersey with the Brustring next season.

Despite the uncertainties, VfB Stuttgart is already looking at two potential successors for Stiller. According to 'kicker', Casper Jander from FC Southampton and Kodai Sano from NEC Nijmegen are candidates who could replace Stiller in case of his departure. Jander was already a topic last summer when his move from 1. FC Nürnberg was imminent. VfB had made an offer of around 7.5 million euros, while Southampton ultimately paid 12 million euros.

Kodai Sano, the brother of Kaishu Sano, is also an interesting player for the Swabians. Although he was not nominated for Japan's World Cup squad, it is reported that Nijmegen is demanding a transfer fee of 20 million euros for him. VfB Stuttgart remains active in the transfer market as the future of Angelo Stiller remains uncertain.
