Dzenan Pejcinovic is one step closer to completing his dream move to Stuttgart, as Wolfsburg's sporting director, Dieter Hecking, confirmed total agreement on Saturday. After Wolfsburg's goalless draw with Kaiserslautern, the club's former coach said they had agreed with a club on his transfer, without mentioning Stuttgart.
Wolfsburg declined multiple offers for the Germany U21 international, while FC Porto's attempt to lure the striker was also rejected by the player. However, the 21-year-old is keen to join Stuttgart this summer.
Pejcinovic was named in Wolfsburg's squad for the 2. Bundesliga opener, but he ended the game against Kaiserslautern as an unused substitute. According to Kicker, the two clubs reached full agreement on a €25 million transfer fee.
After Kicker's confirmation, Sky Sports reported there is still one key detail yet to be negotiated between the clubs despite Hecking's statement. Nonetheless, they also noted the deal is in an advanced stage.

Bochum's first season back in the 2. Bundesliga did not unfold as many had hoped, but there is renewed optimism around the Vonovia Ruhrstadion as Uwe Rösler prepares for his first full campaign in charge.
After stabilising the club following a difficult start last season, the former Fortuna Düsseldorf boss now has the opportunity to shape the squad in his own image and guide Bochum towards the upper end of the table.
Bochum's response to relegation began in disastrous fashion. Under Dieter Hecking, they won just one of their opening eight league matches while losing the other seven, leaving the club firmly in the relegation battle.
Rösler arrived in October and quickly transformed Bochum's fortunes. His side lost just one of his first 15 league games in charge, climbing comfortably away from danger and ultimately finishing ninth with 44 points, seven clear of the relegation zone.
Bochum have been busy rebuilding their squad this summer, bringing in ten new faces. Nine have arrived on free transfers, while Michael Steinwender joined from Hearts for an undisclosed fee.

Barcelona have completed the signing of Germany international Karim Adeyemi from Borussia Dortmund, with the forward agreeing a five-year contract at the Camp Nou until June 2031.
The Spanish champions are understood to have paid an initial €22 million for the 24-year-old, with a further €7 million in performance-related add-ons. The deal also includes a sell-on clause that will see Dortmund receive a percentage of any future profit from a transfer.
Adeyemi becomes Barcelona's second signing of the summer following the arrival of Anthony Gordon from Newcastle United. His pace and versatility give Hans-Dieter Flick another attacking option, with the German capable of playing through the middle or on either wing.
The pair already know each other well, with Flick handing Adeyemi his senior Germany debut in 2021. The forward leaves Dortmund after four seasons, having scored 36 goals in 146 appearances since joining from RB Salzburg in 2022.
