Dan-Axel Zagadou is set to join Stuttgart on a free transfer. The player has been a free agent since leaving Borussia Dortmund at the end of his contract last season, and is now set to remain in the Bundesliga.
Several clubs were linked with his signature, including West Ham United, most recently. However, the player was never close to joining the London side, according to renowned transfer insider Fabrizio Romano.
Dan-Axel Zagadou to join Stuttgart on free transfer
During his time with Borussia Dortmund, he was able to showcase his potential on several occasions. However, injuries limited his progress and ultimately played a part in him leaving on a free transfer. But there is still time for the 23-year-old to turn things around and get consistent game time.
The Frenchman spent five years with the black and yellow club after joining from PSG in 2017. He has made 92 appearances for them, and will be extending his tally in the Bundesliga once he signs officially.
A medical assessment has been scheduled for Dan-Axel Zagadou soon, so that he can complete the formalities and be officially announced as a new player. And with the international break ahead, he will have plenty of time to ease into the first team.
