VfB Stuttgart are showing advanced interest in midfielder Djaoui Cissé, based on the latest transfer news from FußballTransfers.com.

The Bundesliga club highly values the profile of the dynamic right-footed player from Stade Rennes and is monitoring his developments.

Although Stuttgart's central midfield department is certainly well-stocked in terms of quality, appearances can be deceiving.

Highly sought-after Angelo Stiller could still leave, leaving only Atakan Karazor, Chema Andrés, and new signing Grischa Prömel.

All-rounder Nikolas Nartey has improved significantly and recently extended his contract, but he still needs to bring more consistency.

It's no coincidence that rumors have recently circulated about players like Caspar Jander and Anderlecht's Nathan De Cat.

As for French U-21 international Cissé, the midfielder is under contract with Rennes until 2030, but could be sold for the right price.
