Gift Orban is more than ever pushed towards the exit at Olympique Lyonnais. Forced to downsize its squad, the Rhone club, which is in the grip of major financial problems, placed the striker on the list of transferable players during the January transfer window.
Further proof that Gift Orban no longer fits into Pierre Sage's plans, he has not played in Ligue 1 since the end of September, and was not selected for the Europa League match against Qarabag.
It is therefore in this context that several European groups have already come forward for information. While Trabzonspor has returned to the charge, a German club is also said to be interested.
According to the latest information from Sky Sport Germany, VfB Stuttgart is interested in the profile of Nigerian striker Gift Orban. The German club, faced with several injuries in its offensive sector, is looking to strengthen its attack and sees Orban as a potential solution.
However, the OL striker is just one avenue among many, and is probably not a priority for VfB Stuttgart who are mainly interested in a former Stade Rennais player. Indeed, the German team would like to loan Mathys Tel who plays little at Bayern Munich.
Concerning Stade Rennais, the VfB is also attentive to the situation of Rennes striker Arnaud Kalimuendo.
