VfB Stuttgart: Change from Yusuf Akçiçek unlikely - reasons explained!
A lot is happening in the football world and the rumor mill is bubbling! Although the summer transfer market only opens on July 1st, VfB Stuttgart is already associated with potential new additions. Among other things, the 19-year-old central defender Yusuf Akçiçek from Fenerbahçe Istanbul is the focus of interest. Turkish media report from a possible change of the talented player to VfB, but there are some hurdles that are currently speaking against a transfer. Loud ZVW the association does not seriously plan to sign Akçiçek.
The young defender has already drawn attention to Turkey as an A international and has 14 missions in the current season, in which he scored two goals and contributed an assist. Despite these statistics, his obligation for Stuttgart is associated with great challenges. Fenerbahçe is said to have called for a price of over 10 million euros for Akçiçek, possibly even up to 25 million euros, while the player's market value is around 6 million euros. This discrepancy at the price ensures that the chances of a transfer are estimated to be extremely low, as well as Transferfeed reported.
The hurdles of a transfer
The reasons for a change are versatile. In addition to the financial burden, the language barrier is also an obstacle, because Akçiçek does not speak German. In addition, the defensive at VfB Stuttgart is well staffed with players such as Jeff Chabot, Finn Jeltsch, Ameen Al-Dakhil, Luca Jaquez and Dan-Axel Zagadou. An additional defender is therefore not necessarily necessary, which further reinforces the argument against a transfer.
Interestingly, other top European clubs such as Manchester United and Bayern Munich have also made an eye on Akçiçek, which also makes the situation complex. Fenerbahçe Vice President Acun Ilıcalı said that although there were some verbal negotiations, the club management was not inclined to give the player to the player during this transfer period. This leaves the speculation about a change of even more uncomfortable, as also from Transfermarktfenerbahçes transfer balance

The total total amount for the access amounts to 67.86 million euros, while the income is 31.70 million euros. The transfer balance therefore shows a clear loss, which may also explain the reluctance to Akçiçek.
Whether VfB Stuttgart can set the course for a transfer at the end remains to be seen. However, the fans should not have too much hopes, since the likelihood of changing from Yusuf Akçiçek to Stuttgart is assessed as extremely low. But as the saying goes in football: everything can change quickly!
