<p>According to <a href="https://sport.sky.de/fussball/artikel/bayern-ist-mit-vfb-star-woltemade-einig/13389100/33895" target="_blank"><em>Sky Sport</em>,</a> the Stuttgart forward held a video call with Bayern boss Vincent Kompany, sporting director Christoph Freund and director of sport Max Ebrel, in which he confirmed his intention to join the Bundesliga champions.</p><p>Even though the player wants a transfer, the process is still complicated because Woltemade is under contract with Stuttgart until 2028 and doesn't have a release clause.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Bayern are actively rebuilding under Kompany after the team intends to achieve both domestic and European dominance in the 2025-26 season. The addition of Woltemade would bring a promising young talent into the squad, especially with the club aiming to reinforce their attack around key figures like Harry Kane and Jamal Musiala.</p><p>Stuttgart, however, are reluctant to sell one of their brightest prospects, who lifted the DFB-Pokal in his first year at the club. On the other hand, Bayern want to tie the striker to a five-year contract, but the deal depends on Stuttgart.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

He is also Germany’s top scorer at the ongoing U21 European Championship with six goals and three assists in four games.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Bayern are expected to formally open negotiations with Stuttgart following the conclusion of the U21 European Championship, where Woltemade will feature in the final against England on June 28. </p>
