At VfB Stuttgart, Sasa Kalajdzic developed into a top performer and crowd favorite. Now the ex-VFB striker is making a completely surprising change:
Update from September 5 to 2:13 p.m.: The ink is dry! The former VfB striker Sasa Kalajdzic will be loaned by the Wolverhampton Wanderers to the Austrian first division club Lask. The clubs announce this on Friday.
Perfect transfer surprise: Ex-VfB striker Sasa Kalajdzic Back in Austria
“I just want to have fun with football, stay healthy, collect as many minutes as possible and play consistently at a good level. The LASK can offer me that. We have a good team and a good environment, I know some players from before, I only heard good ones,” Kalajdzic explains his step home.
Big surprise about ex-VfB star Kalajdzic-change is imminent
First report from September 5 – 8:14 a.m.: When Sasa Kalajdzic left VfB Stuttgart 2022 for 18 million euros towards Wolverhampton, the Swabians were happy about a high transfer fee. At that time it was not yet clear that the club from the state capital of Baden-Württemberg was taking the incredible sum of at least 85 million euros three years later for the change from Nick Woltemade.
Kalajdzic at VfB from 2019 until his farewell was not only one of the top performers, but also among the audience lovers. Thanks to the templates of Borna Sosa, the Austrian also played 24 goals in 60 games in his VfB period. However, he was then pursued by the bad luck. In the past three years, the attacker suffered two cruciate ligament cracks.
So he was neither able to gain a foothold in the Premier League nor at his loan to Eintracht Frankfurt. In the meantime, Sasa Kalajdzic has fought back. On August 30, he celebrated his comeback for Wolverhampton in a short assignment against Everton FC. Nevertheless, the next (surprising) change could be due.
As the “Upper Austrian News” report, the LASK is planning a loan of the 19-time national player in Austria. The club from Linz has a disappointing start to the season and is in the penultimate place with three points.
In summer, among other things, there were rumors about returning to the German Bundesliga and a move to Italy, but now the future of the 28-year-old could be in his homeland. Incidentally, his contract with the Wolverhampton Wanders runs until June 30, 2027 (NWO)
