Norway international Hugo Vetlesen could still join Germany in the last seven days of the winter transfer window. As the Norwegian broadcaster ‘TV2’ reports, a Bundesliga club has asked FK Bodö/Glimt about the 22-year-old midfielder and is seriously considering making a concrete offer in the near future.
According to Transfermarkt insider Fabrizio Romano, this is VfB Stuttgart. But the Swabians are not alone in their interest. According to ‘TV2’, Hungarian champions Ferencváros are also interested in Vetlesen. The Budapest club had already made an offer, but Bodö/Glimt rejected it.
At the right price, the Norwegians would probably let their number ten go. Vetlesen’s contract expires at the end of the year, so there aren’t many opportunities to generate a transfer. But it is also clear that the club would lose a top performer with the 22-year-old. In the Eliteserien season that has already ended, Vetlesen scored 16 goals and twelve assists in 29 appearances.
Will Vetlesen follow Ahamada?
The midfielder could follow in Naouirou Ahamada’s footsteps in Stuttgart. The 20-year-old Frenchman is behind FT-Information before moving to Premier League club Crystal Palace. With the fee due, a Vetlesen transfer could certainly be financed.
