VfB star Demirovic plans departure after only one year-what is behind it?

Stuttgart, Deutschland - In the past few days, the rumor mill is bubbling around VfB Stuttgart. The striker Ermedin Demirovic could leave the club again after just one year. The 27-year-old is dissatisfied with his role in the team and thinks about a departure. Despite his remarkable performance, the attacker was often not regularly found in the starting eleven and repeatedly played in the shadow of other offensive forces, such as Südwest24 reports .

Demirovic, who moved from Augsburg to the Swabians for an impressive 23 million euros last summer, scored 15 goals in the past season and gave two templates. He was also active in international competitions, including in the Bundesliga and the UEFA Champions League. His current contract runs until June 30, 2028, and its market value is currently around 22 million euros. So it is clear that VfB is not averse to taking negotiations in the event of a suitable offer, said transfer expert Florian Plettenberg.

the path of striker

Demirovic was born on March 25, 1998 in Hamburg and has already had a moving career. He came to unite via Hamburger SV and RB Leipzig like SC Freiburg and FC Augsburg before moving to VfB in 2024. This season he came up with a total of 20 missions in the Bundesliga, in which he was able to score 15 goals, and was the sixth highest scorer in the league. He shares this place with Omar Marmoush and Hugo Ekitiké.

A look at the statistics of his Bundesliga career shows that he was able to score a total of 45 goals in 158 games, while he was on the pitch 34 times for Stuttgart. In this position, he was also responsible for the third highest number of goals this season, which underlines its good shape. Nevertheless, it is remarkable that he has been sitting on the bench more often last season, which explains his dissatisfaction.

Developments in the Swabians

The people responsible for VfB see themselves in a dilemma. While Demirovic thinks about a possible change, there are also further changes. Players like Wooeong Jeong and Luca Pfeiffer will leave the club, and Dennis Seimen is also awarded to SC Paderborn. The still uncertain future of Lorenz Assignon, a French full -back, could also have an impact on the team, such as Südwest24 further reported.

The next few weeks will show whether Demirovic will actually seek a change of wallpaper or whether he would like to continue to seek his luck in Stuttgart. The interest of Italian clubs and the internal situation at the Swabians make this summer an exciting one for everyone involved.

For fans and observers, it only remains to be seen how the situation around Demirovic and VfB Stuttgart will develop. One thing is certain: With 15 goals last season, the striker could be a good catch for many clubs if he actually takes a change. It is to be hoped that VfB will make the right decision for the future.
