“The collaboration with those responsible for Alex Wehrle, Fabian Wohlgemuth and Christian Gentner was very trusting from the start,” said Sebastian Hoeneß on Saturday as a factor for his premature contract extension until 2028 at VfB Stuttgart. And that without exit clause, as before. In addition to the good team, the “Sport Bild” in a background report on Wednesday called a few more soft factors that convinced the coveted 42-year-old from positioning themselves significantly in terms of its future.
Hoeneß not only appreciates the backing in more difficult phases-as was the case-very much that he also has the potential in the VfB squad for further successes after the runner-up championship and also reaching the Champions League. Since taking office, the former Hoffenheim trainer has won 1.83 points per game with the Stuttgarters. Since then, the squad value has almost tripled from 116 million to currently EUR 333.7 million-even if the market value update on Thursday is slightly down for the first time.

If this occurs, it is clear that discussions that open to the result in Stuttgart would be held. Even without the exit clause, a departure is possible with a good offer.
VfB Stuttgart’s Wehrle already optimistic at Hoeneß in February
VfB board boss Alexander Wehrle had already been convinced in the interview with the transfer market in mid-February to go into the coming season with coach Hoeneß (for an interview). Even if, according to the “Sport Bild”, the decisive course for this was only set in March.

I find it as an award for his work that a lot is written and speculated. Of course I get it with. But for me it is crucial for me what he tells us in personal conversation. He is fully focused on VfB and totally integrated in the planning of the new season. He meant by his contract. d.
