Overview
- VfL Wolfsburg and VfB Stuttgart have reached an agreement in principle for Dzenan Pejcinovic with a reported fee of about €25 million, and the transfer is waiting on the player’s medical and final paperwork.
- Wolfsburg confirmed the deal late on Saturday and left Pejcinovic unused in their 2. Bundesliga opener because negotiations were on the 'home stretch.'
- Multiple outlets report Pejcinovic asked to join Stuttgart and declined other offers, a factor that helped push talks to completion.
- BILD reports unconfirmed contract details — a five-year deal to 2031 at roughly €2.5m per season with no exit clause or bonuses — but the clubs have not validated those specifics.
- Pejcinovic scored 12 goals in 34 games last season and a completed transfer would give Stuttgart extra forward depth for three competitions while allowing relegated Wolfsburg to realize a major sale.
