Oh Hyun-kyu's trip to Stuttgart in the German Bundesliga was canceled. However, the team is likely to once again try to recruit Oh Hyun-kyu. This winter's transfer market seems to be the right time.
"Henk's recruitment of Oh Hyun-kyu (24), who was selected as a substitute for Nick Voltemade, was canceled at the last minute," the German magazine Kicker said on the 3rd (Korea time), but "Henk did not understand the situation." Oh Hyun-kyu has returned to the team and is likely to cash in on the upcoming winter transfer market. Stuttgart can also move again depending on the situation,' the report said.
Earlier, Oh Hyun-kyu's transfer to the Bundesliga was canceled just before the closing of the European soccer transfer market. On the 2nd, Stuttgart tried to change the terms of the contract after judging that Oh Hyun-kyu's knee was in poor condition in a medical test. Genk did not accept this. Since he needed a central striker anyway, he decided to return Oh Hyun-kyu to the squad.
Everyone knew that replacing Nick Boltemade wouldn't be easy. Stuttgart was also in a hurry as it had to bring in a new player just before the end of the transfer market.
Oh recently said goodbye to his fans after finishing a Belgian league game. It was likely to undergo a medical test to Stuttgart and sign a contract by 2029. But it was a waste of time. Eventually, they were reunited with their fans.
The media reported "This deal, which seemed like an ordinary transfer, ended up with an unpleasant ending for all parties"Oh Hyun-kyu's knee condition, which caused an anterior cruciate ligament injury when he was a child, was a problem. However, despite playing without any problems in his professional career for the next nine years, Stuttgart was concerned about this" he explained.
Stuttgart is likely to struggle this season without reinforcing its striker. If that happens, he may seek to recruit Oh Hyun-kyu once again. Oh Hyun-kyu is showing his best form based on his fast speed and explosive shooting ability. It is safe to say that he is currently the best goal-scoring player in the Korean national team. It seems only a matter of time before leaving the Belgian league and joining a major European league team. It did not happen in this summer transfer market, but it can be targeted for the upcoming winter transfer market. He is expected to play as Genk's main striker in the 2025-2026 season, giving him more opportunities to show his ability. In other words, this transfer failure is not a bad situation for Oh Hyun-kyu in order to leave for a bigger team.
