In this episode of the Gegenpressing Podcast, Manuel Veth and Stefan Bienkowski discuss the latest transfer news in the Bundesliga. They start by talking about Bayern Munich's failed pursuit of Désiré Doué and Xavi Simons, and how it reflects a trend of the club going after young talents from other leagues instead of developing their own. They also discuss the defensive issues at Bayern and the need to focus on strengthening the back line. The hosts then move on to discuss VfB Stuttgart's transfer activity, particularly their pursuit of another striker despite already having several options in that position. Stuttgart is actively looking to strengthen their squad before the start of the season. They have been linked with Armando Broja from Chelsea and Loic Bade from Sevilla. These signings would provide depth and options in both attack and defense. The club's transfer activity shows their ambition to compete in Europe and solidify their position in the Bundesliga. Leipzig, on the other hand, has made a quick signing in Antonio Nusa from Club Brugge to replace Dani Olmo. The club is focused on building a strong squad to challenge for the Bundesliga title. There is a sense of opportunity in the league with Bayern Munich being dethroned last season, and multiple teams, including Leipzig, believing they have a chance to win the title.
