Stuttgart expect Arsenal target Enzo Millot to leave
Enzo Millot (22) scored 12 and provided eight assists in 43 games across all competitions last season, his best tally yet, but Stuttgart expect the Frenchman to leave this summer. As reported by BILD, everything currently points to a departure for Millot. The 22-year-old has a reported release clause just under €20m, and the French playmaker is pushing for a move this summer with the DFB Pokal winners also expecting their prized asset to leave. Per the report, clubs from Saudi Arabia are monitoring the player's situation while Premier League duo Arsenal and Tottenham are also interested in Millot. Advertisement Should Millot leave, VfB have already identified Muhammed Damar as a potential replacement for Millot. The 21-year-old scored nine goals and provided six assists in 31 league games for 2. Bundesliga side Elversberg last season while on loan from Hoffenheim. Damar's contract expires in 2026 but despite holding initial talks, Borussia Mönchengladbach, 1. FC Köln and Marseille have shown an interest in the Hoffenheim player. GGFN | Daniel Pinder

Stuttgart beat Arminia Bielefeld 4-2 to clinch German Cup
VfB Stuttgart beat third-tier Arminia Bielefeld 4-2 with a double from Enzo Millot to lift the German Cup for the first time in 28 years on Saturday (May 24, 2025), bringing relief for Sebastian Hoeness' side after a disappointing Bundesliga campaign. Goals from Nick Woltemade, Millot and Deniz Undav put Stuttgart 3-0 up at the break before Millot scored again to make it 4-0 after 66 minutes and effectively end the contest. Bielefeld did pull a goal back through substitute Julian Kania eight minutes from time before Stuttgart's Josha Vagnoman netted an own goal in the 85th but it was too little, too late. The win was Stuttgart's fourth German Cup success and earned a place in the Europa League's league phase. They finished the Bundesliga campaign ninth, two points off the European spots. They delivered a bitter ending to a fairytale run for Bielefeld, who stunned holders Bayer Leverkusen in April to reach the final for the first time. They eliminated three other Bundesliga teams in consecutive rounds in the competition. Bielefeld, who clinched the third division title last weekend, failed to crown their promotion back to Bundesliga 2 with another trophy. They were the fourth third-tier side to reach the German Cup final and first since Union Berlin in 2001. Bielefeld got off to a lively start and should have taken an early lead through Noah Sarenren Bazee, who smashed the ball against the bar from close range. Instead, Woltemade put Stuttgart in front after 15 minutes, beating goalkeeper Jonas Kersken with a low shot from the edge of the area. The 23-year-old forward received his first Germany call-up on Thursday ahead of the Nations League semi-final against Portugal on June 4. Millot doubled Stuttgart's lead on the counter-attack seven minutes later, scoring into an empty net after the ball was laid off to the 22-year-old midfielder by Undav, who added the third goal himself in the 28th by firing into the bottom corner. Millot scored his second after the break when he finished a solo run with a low shot inside the far post. Stuttgart captain Atakan Karazor thought he had a fifth following a corner but his header was ruled out for offside. Vagnoman's own goal, following Bielefeld's first from Kania, made for a somewhat nervy ending and Stuttgart keeper Alexander Nuebel had to save from substitute Lukas Kunze in stoppage time. Stuttgart last lifted the German Cup in 1997 when they beat third-tier Energie Cottbus 2-0.

Stuttgart too good for minnows in German Cup final
Four mistakes, four goals. Stuttgart ruthlessly capitalised on errors in Arminia Bielefeld's defence to win the German Cup with a 4-2 victory in the final on Saturday. Enzo Millot scored twice and Germany forwards Nick Woltemade and Deniz Undav got the others as Stuttgart claimed their fourth German Cup win and the first since 1997. "We've written history today. The guys can be proud of what they delivered," Stuttgart chairman Alexander Wehrle said. "There's no way we're going to bed tonight." Bielefeld, the third-division champion, were playing in the final for the first time as only the fourth representative from that division to ever reach German soccer's end-of-season showpiece. But there was no fairytale ending for the team's American captain, Mael Corboz, after he helped them knock out defending champions Bayer Leverkusen in the semi-finals and a host of Bundesliga clubs en route to the final. Substitute Julian Kania scored a late consolation and Stuttgart's Josha Vagnoman conceded an own goal a minute after that to get the Bielefeld fans singing again before the end. Both sets of supporters displayed huge choreographies before the match in front of 74,000 spectators at Berlin's Olympiastadion, where they repeatedly ignored appeals to stop setting off pyrotechnics. The cup win comes after Hoeneß led Stuttgart to second place in the Bundesliga last season. This season was complicated by Champions League participation. The team lost a club-record six home Bundesliga games in a row, but finished the season strongly with three straight wins. Stuttgart were given a boost before the final when Germany midfielder Angelo Stiller returned after two weeks out with an ankle injury. Stiller set up two goals as Stuttgart raced into a 3-0 lead inside the first half hour. All three goals came with Stuttgart pouncing on mistakes, with Stiller sending Woltemade on his way for the opener. The fourth also came after a mistake with Millot sealing the result with his second goal in the 66th. Bielefeld's supporters consoled themselves by lighting flares, while their counterparts used the pyrotechnics to celebrate. Four mistakes, four goals.
