Germany's leading newspaper described in detail the background of Oh Hyun-kyu's failure to transfer. He also thought it was necessary to explain the background of failing to pass the medical test at a time when he was likely to move to Stuttgart.

Germany's Bild reported on the 2nd (Korea time) that Stuttgart's summer transfer market had a shocking end.

The media reported that "Henk (Belgium) striker Oh Hyun-kyu (24) arrived in Stuttgart. But instead of a transfer, he has to go back to Belgium. The planned transfer as a substitute for Voltemade was ultimately canceled." Oh Hyun-kyu failed the medical test. And Stuttgart failed to recruit the striker as it had been expected.

In an interview with Bild, Fabian Bolzemut Stuttgart said, `We have been keeping an eye on Oh for a long time. With Nick Boltemade (Newcastle) away, the whole team was sure he would help us positionally"So I quickly went into action, and I called the player Stuttgart for the final negotiations."

"However, in the process of discussing on-site conversations and coordinating details, more and more complex problems arose, and in the end, agreements and transfers became impossible," Bolmut said.

It is said that Bolgemuth did not elaborate on the reason for Oh Hyun-kyu's failure to transfer. There also seems to be an intention to protect Oh Hyun-kyu.




The media outlet "Oh Hyun-kyu suffered a cruciate ligament injury nine years ago. Since then, he has run without any problems, but medical tests have reportedly found signs that Stuttgart may be concerned about." According to the risk assessment given by Stuttgart, Oh's knee problem may be worse than initially expected and potential aftereffects cannot be ruled out.

As a result, Stuttgart and Genk began renegotiating at the end of the transfer market. Initially, Stuttgart was reportedly ready to pay more than 25 million euros (about 40 billion won) to Oh Hyun-kyu. However, after the medical test, Stuttgart reportedly tried to move for 20 million euros (about 32.4 billion won). It is said that it has also considered switching to a loan transfer.

This eventually prevented the two clubs from reaching an agreement. Genk had already sold key striker Arokodare to Wolverhampton. I didn't intend to sell Oh Hyun-kyu, the next main striker, cheaply because there was no desperate need for additional transfer revenue.




Bild added "Stuttgart ultimately failed to recruit a surprise striker at the deadline and finished the summer. "I started the season without reinforcing the striker. "Oh Hyun-kyu is going back to Belgium. "
