Kicker reported that VfB Stuttgart was interested in David Herold as a potential reinforcement. They considered him as an option, but since they already have Maximilian Mittelstädt and Ramon Hendriks covering his position, their interest has waned. Herold has the option to leave Karlsruher SC for a fee of around 3.5 million Euros. The 22-year-old left-back, who developed at FC Bayern and has participated in 60 official matches for Karlsruher SC, matches the profile of players that Stuttgart typically targets. Nonetheless, due to the existing squad depth in his position, there is no pressing need for Herold, resulting in a decline in interest unless there are changes in the current roster.
