The VfB Stuttgart and Hull City have reached a fundamental agreement over the transfer of right-back Josha Vagnoman, according to reports from Sky. The 25-year-old defender remains the subject of strong interest from the English Championship side, although personal terms between the player and the club are not yet finalized.
Stuttgart Shifts Valuation After Early Resistance
Stuttgart’s willingness to sell marks a shift in stance for the Bundesliga club, which previously rejected a €5.5 million bid from Hull City. The club’s hierarchy has re-evaluated its valuation amid intensifying market interest. Vagnoman featured prominently for Stuttgart on the opening matchday of the Bundesliga season, playing the full 90 minutes in a fixture against FC Bayern Munich.
Late Premier League Entry Complicates Hull Bid
Competition for the defender’s signature has escalated significantly on the final stretch of the transfer window. Premier League sides Nottingham Forest and West Ham United have entered the race to secure the right-back, creating a late multi-club scramble for his services. While Hull City holds an agreement on the club-to-club fee with Stuttgart, the final destination depends on ongoing negotiations involving the player and rival suitors.
