Leeds handed transfer boost: Star could be set for exit after first-team snub
ALEXANDRU MAXIM’S future at Stuttgart has been cast into serious doubt after he failed to make the bench in the 2-1 win over Heidenheim on the weekend.
The 26-year-old winger, who has scored just two goals in 17 league appearances this season, was dropped from the match-day squad entirely.
Maxim has been linked with a move to Leeds and could be on the move after struggling for regular game time at the German club.
When quizzed last month whether Maxim would consider joining a club in the England, his representative, Herbert Briem, refused to rule out a move.
“I advise Alex to play football where you have the highest requirements and where they believe in him,” he told German newspaper Bild.
“There are prerequisites at Stuttgart.
“The faith [at Stuttgart] is currently not 100 percent there.
“But there have been many situations that have changed completely in a very short time.
“Alex has the quality to be a top player.”
The Romania international has made 107 appearances for Stuttgart since joining the club in 2013.
