- VfB talent Raimund will probably be out for several weeks.

Offensive talent Luca Raimund is likely to miss several weeks of VfB Stuttgart's preseason. The 19-year-old sustained muscle problems in the adductor region during the reigning champions' trip to Japan. It is expected that Raimund will be out for up to a month, according to sporting director Fabian Wohlgemuth.

Despite Luca Raimund's absence, VfB Stuttgart's football league preparations continue, with the team needing to adapt their strategies without the young talent's contributions. The team will closely monitor Raimund's progress in the Football League's off-season, hoping for a swift return to full fitness.
