Overview

  • Stuttgart has rejected two offers from Bayern totaling €50 million plus €5 million in bonuses and holds out for at least €65 million
  • Bayern chief Jan-Christian Dreesen criticized Stuttgart’s demand for a set fee before talking and said he does not understand the club’s stance
  • With Woltemade under contract at Stuttgart until 2028 without a release clause, Stuttgart retains full leverage in the negotiations
  • The 23-year-old striker has reaffirmed his wish to join Bayern but continues training with Stuttgart as the clubs remain at an impasse
  • Bayern has supplemented its attack by securing winger Luis Díaz from Liverpool, signaling parallel reinforcement efforts
