Ever since their formation in 1893, Stuttgart have always been one of the bigger clubs in Germany and have great facilities and coaches etc.

For this story I am going to try and get VfB Stuttgart back into Europe and back in contention for the Bundesliga title, not much of a challenge so will most probably be a shortish story.

Goals first 2 seasons

• Finish in the top 5
• Qualify for at least the Europa League

Goals next 2 seasons

• Challenge for the Bundesliga title
• Qualify for the UEFA Champions League

Goals seasons 4 to 6

• Win the Bundesliga
• Win the UEFA Champions League

I tried to make these goals spread out, so that I dont get into a financial predicament and give me time to rebuild this once great team.

Will be adding all friendlies and transfers soon :)

The latest news out of Stuttgart sees VfB making a few important signings ahead of the coming Bundesliga season, and in an attempt to fund these transfers they have had to sell of a bit of the clubs deadwood.

Transfers OUT:

Arthur Boka to Sevilla for £3.5M
Alexander Stolz to Borussia Dortmund for £825K
Sebastian Hertner to Saarbrucken on a Loan

Transfers IN:

Daniel Schwaab from Bayer Leverkusen for £2.3M
Hugo Nervo from Arsenal de Sarandi for £625K

Daniel Schwaab



Great signing for VfB, really needed a RB as we only had on on loan from Schalke (Hoogland), so now he will be able to get good game time and hopefully improve into a starter for the National team.

Hugo Nervo

Another great talent, but Nervo will need a bit more work to get him into the first team starting position. I just hope him will be able to settle in Germany well, as most Southern Americans tend to have homesickness.

Quick Question

Do you guys think I should sell Cacau? Ive been offers £7.5M over a period of 48 months, is that a fair deal?
