Dan-Axel Zagadou due for a Dijon medical
Everything agreed with VfB Stuttgart, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

- Market The clock runs on Julien Domingues's contract
- The dugout Tyris Dong asks for a word with the manager
