FC Bayern vs. VfB Stuttgart: 100 million for Woltemade - who wins?

FC Bayern Munich and striker Nick Woltemade are said to be about to reach, but the negotiations between the record champions and VfB Stuttgart are challenging. In particular, the required transfer fee of 100 million euros that VfB has set for the 23-year-old ensures difficulties. According to SPOX Bavaria sees the transfer fee of only 30 million euros.

This discrepancy between the ideas of the two clubs is assessed as problematic. VfB Stuttgart not only determined the transfer from a financial perspective, but also to send a clear signal. The behavior of the association is interpreted as a mixture of defiance, calculation and humor. It is also noted that even wealthy clubs like Al-Hilal would find it difficult to pay such a high amount for a player whose career is still in the beginning.

market value and transfer dynamics

The transfer market is common towards a constant change, not least because of the increasing funds that flow into football. Bayern Munich, as one of the richest clubs, could experience more competition on the market through this financial incentives. According to Süddeutsche grows the interest in players at Bayern, which is difficult for everyone involved.

In the current situation, VfB Stuttgart makes it clear that it is not willing to give Woltemade at a lower price. This becomes clear not least by the exceptional transfer fee of 100 million euros, which is intended to underline the player's market value accordingly. The reactions to this requirement show that VfB, with this strategy, primarily wants to signal that only an exorbitant amount could justify a replacement of the striker.

This remains to be seen how the negotiations will develop in the coming weeks. FC Bayern will probably still have to deal with similar challenges on the transfer market, while VfB Stuttgart sees itself in a position in which it can place high demands.
