VfB Stuttgart in the race around Hoffenheim's young star Tom Bischof!

Stuttgart, Deutschland - The young Hoffenheim Tom Bishop is the hottest transfer candidate in the league! VfB Stuttgart is very interested in the 19-year-old midfielder, who attracts the top clubs like RB Leipzig with his talent. But VfB has a decisive advantage: coach Sebastian Hoeneß, who once brought Bishop into the professional team of TSG Hoffenheim, could be the key to a change.

Although the winter transfer window is still closed, the planning for the next season is already in full swing. Bishop, who can play both on the ten and on the six, has already completed 42 professional games in his four seasons and faces before a contract in June 2025. No wonder that the Swabians do everything they can to oblige the talented player while at the same time fighting against the financial overwhelming of the competition.

Hoeneß as a trump card in the poker around Bishop

The connection between Hoeneß and Bishop could be the decisive factor. The coach gave the talented player his Bundesliga debut in 2022 and knows his strengths closely. This personal connection has already borne fruits on other transfers, such as that of Angelo Stiller. Stiller, who became an undisputed regular player and international under Hoeneß, raves about working with his former coach.

But the competition doesn't sleep! Hoffenheim absolutely wants to keep Bishop and plans to extend his contract. However, the decision about his future is still pending, and the uncertain location of Hoeneß, which has an exit clause and is also courted, could influence the outcome of the transfer. The tension increases - will VfB Stuttgart be able to land the coveted young star?
