Stuttgart thinks of a Frenchman to replace Woltemade

While the departure of Nick Woltemade to Newcastle United is becoming clearer, the VFB Stuttgart is working to find a new offensive leader. In the viewfinder of the leaders is Alexis Claude-Maurice, 27, currently at FC Augsburg. Already followed in the past, French is today considered the priority to succeed German international according to Bild.

Under contract until 2026, Claude-Maurice is a key player from Augsburg and Sandro Wagner absolutely wishes to keep it. However, the club could be open to a discussion in the event of an offer of around € 25 million. Currently injured, the former Niçois should return after the international break. Stuttgart could accelerate negotiations to try to attract the French attacking midfielder before the end of the transfer window.
