VfB content in English
The competitive season for VfB doesn’t start as usual with the first round of the cup, but with the Supercup against double-winners Leverkusen. Before the clash between the champions and runners-up, we spoke with Bayer expert Sebastian Bergmann from the Rheinische Post.
With the return of Deniz Undav, VfB has set another transfer record just a few weeks after signing Ermedin Demirović, fulfilling what seemed to be the biggest wish of their fans this summer break. So, is caution being thrown to the wind once again in Bad Cannstatt? Or have times simply changed?
After two years, Serhou Guirassy is leaving VfB and moving on to Dortmund. His time with us was short compared to other players, but all the more intense.
The VfB has signed Augsburg’s captain Ermedin Demirović as a successor to record striker Serhou Guirassy, who is on the verge of a transfer to Borussia Dortmund. But can he replace him? We took a closer look at Demirović.
The notion that Japanese people are taciturn and reserved is a dreadful cliché. Now, as Hiroki Ito leaves VfB after three years as one of the most expensive departures in the club’s history, it feels as though we haven’t seen him long enough in the white and red.
As the next new signing for the upcoming season, VfB Stuttgart introduces Yannick Keitel, who joins on a free transfer thanks to his expiring contract. For the defensive specialist, this marks the first club change in his professional career.
Not only did Jeff Chabot find his way from the Rhine to the Neckar after the season ended, but his teammate Justin Diehl will also be wearing the Brustring starting next season. However, under different circumstances. We spoke with Thomas Reinscheid from effzeh.com about him.
Due to the promotion of the second team to the 3rd league, securing a starting spot for Dennis Seimen, and the departure of Florian Schock, the position of third goalkeeper became available at VfB. Fabian Wohlgemuth filled it with Stefan Drljača from Dynamo Dresden, who gathered third-league experience there and at Dortmund II. We gathered insights from Saxony and the Ruhr region.
On each of the first four days of last week, VfB announced a transfer — and on Saturday: Jeff Chabot moved from relegated Cologne to VfB. We inquired about him at FC Cologne and his previous stations in Italy.
