VfB Stuttgart is taking a firm stance regarding Ramon Hendriks, who accumulated over 3400 minutes of playtime in the 2025/26 season. The 24-year-old defender has attracted interest from other clubs, including Borussia Dortmund and Nottingham Forest, due to his strong performances. However, VfB Stuttgart is only willing to engage in talks if an offer of at least 40 million euros is presented. According to "Sport Bild," Hendriks is considered "unavailable for sale." The management at VfB Stuttgart is working to extend the collaboration with the former Dutch youth international beyond the summer of 2028. VfB sporting director Fabian Wohlgemuth praised Hendriks, emphasizing that his playing style fits excellently with the team's dominance and game control. Hendriks, who was signed from Rotterdam in 2024 for around one million euros, has already played 80 competitive matches for VfB Stuttgart. In addition to Hendriks, Dan-Axel Zagadou is also expected to receive a contract extension, as he is highly valued within the team and serves as an important figure in the locker room.
