Overview

  • VfB officials Alexander Wehrle and Fabian Wohlgemuth have declared the matter closed, with the 23-year-old striker set to stay for the coming season.
  • Max Eberl acknowledged the loan-only mandate and even joked that Stuttgart could loan the player to Bayern, a scenario Stuttgart has ruled out.
  • Reporting indicates Bayern initially planned to buy Woltemade and loan him back to Stuttgart, a plan dropped after Jamal Musiala’s injury created immediate needs.
  • Media accounts say Bayern made up to three bids reaching about €65 million and the player’s side waived a sell-on share, but Stuttgart’s valuation and contract leverage held.
  • Ex-Bayern player Thomas Strunz criticized agent Danny Bachmann’s public comments as unhelpful, while Union coach Steffen Baumgart said the saga had no impact on his team ahead of their opener.
