Finn Dahmen of FC Augsburg is one of three goalkeepers, along with Noah Atubolu and Bernd Leno, being discussed as a potential external signing at VfB Stuttgart. According to the 'Stuttgarter Nachrichten', this consideration stems from an internal division where one camp, including head coach Sebastian Hoeneß, sporting director Fabian Wohlgemuth, and sporting director Christian Gentner, reportedly finds it too risky to start the new season with young keeper Dennis Seimen. However, the club's committees are said to be against signing a new number one to avoid blocking Seimen's path. A potential collaboration with the 28-year-old Dahmen, who holds German and English nationality, is described as not being inexpensive. The uncapped goalkeeper joined Augsburg in July 2023, has a contract until 2027, and a current Transfermarkt market value of €12.00m. RB Leipzig has also been linked with him.
