AI-generated editorial illustration.

VfB Stuttgart confirmed Dzenan Pejcinovic’s signing from Wolfsburg on 10 August 2026, with a contract until 30 June 2031. The official announcement resolves the earlier uncertainty about the buying club, after a report had quoted Wolfsburg acknowledging an agreement without naming the destination.

Get German Football News, citing Kicker, described Stuttgart’s opening proposal as €18m and the eventual agreement as €25m. Its account also set out intermediate proposals with different guaranteed and conditional components. Stuttgart’s announcement reviewed here does not itself disclose a fee.

Almost Signed analysis: comparing the reported opening bid with the reported agreement gives an increase of 38.89 per cent, rounded to two decimal places: (€25m minus €18m) divided by €18m. That measures the change in the stated negotiation figures; it does not establish that the final €25m was all guaranteed, or that an intermediate add-on structure survived unchanged.

The distinction prevents an old proposal from being mistaken for the completed deal’s fine print. Stuttgart’s statement supplies the confirmed destination and contract end date, while Kicker’s account, relayed by GGFN, supplies the bidding history. The club described Pejcinovic as an immediate attacking option with development potential, which is an assessment from the buyer rather than a guarantee of minutes or goals.

What remains unconfirmed

  • Stuttgart did not disclose the final fee or add-on structure in the announcement reviewed.

Corrections

  • Source check, 13 October 2026: GGFN explicitly names Demirovic/Undav and medical condition; remove false evidence-denial. Remove false assertion that no Stuttgart forwards are named. Use the source’s actual remaining condition. The source explicitly gives €25m agreement and the earlier €18m/€22m/just-under-€23.5m proposals. Agreement value and prior-bid history are expressly stated. The source explicitly names Chérif, Porto and Leipzig. These details are present in the source and should not be described as unsupported or absent.
