To this end, Stiller’s release clause, currently enshrined in his contract, would first need to be bought out. This is reportedly set at 36.5 million euros and can be removed from the contract for a comparatively modest sum of just two million euros, which VfB would have to pay to Stiller.
The reigning DFB Cup winners could then negotiate a transfer fee freely. Stiller is under contract with the Swabians until 30 June 2028; according to Sport Bild, the club would like to receive at least €50 million should he leave.
Whether it will come to that at all remains unclear. The seven-time German international, who is one of the undisputed first-team regulars in Stuttgart under manager Sebastian Hoeneß and can still harbour hopes of participating in the World Cup, has been linked with several top European clubs in the past.
For instance, Real Madrid of Spain’s LaLiga and Manchester United of the Premier League are said to be showing interest in a transfer, though nothing concrete has apparently materialised yet.
GettyStuttgart would be willing to spend a fair bit of money on Stiller’s successor
Should Stiller actually leave VfB, Stuttgart would have to step up the search for a successor this summer. Between 25 and 30 million of the 50 million euros raised are set to be reinvested for this purpose. The same would apply should Jamie Leweling leave, whose transfer fee is also said to be around 50 million euros. Furthermore, the Swabians are reportedly considering a backup for left-back Maximilian Mittelstädt.
Stiller came through the youth ranks at FC Bayern Munich and joined Stuttgart in the summer of 2023 following a two-year spell at TSG Hoffenheim. This season, he has made 44 appearances for VfB across all competitions, scoring one goal and providing ten assists.
