The German newspaper "Bild" reported that Stuttgart rejected the first offer made by Bayern Munich to sign their young striker Nick Vultmeid during the current summer transfer window.

According to the report, Bayern Munich's offer amounted to 40 million euros plus 5 million in incentives, but Stuttgart insisted on receiving a higher amount to sell their player, who is under contract with the club until the summer of 2028.

Vultmeid is 23 years old and was one of Stuttgart's standout stars last season, contributing to their victory in the DFB-Pokal. He also recently made his first two appearances for the German national team and excelled in the UEFA European Under-21 Championship, topping the scoring chart with 6 goals.

Bayern Munich is seeking to strengthen its attacking line after the departures of Thomas Müller, Leroy Sané, and Mathys Tel, along with the long-term absence of Jamal Musiala due to injury, especially after the Bavarian club's previous failure to sign Florian Wirtz, who chose to move to Liverpool.
