Fabian Bredlow steps up as VfB Stuttgart's temporary No. 1 keeper

VfB Stuttgart has decided to rely on Fabian Bredlow as their starting goalkeeper while Dennis Seimen recovers from a serious thigh injury expected to sideline him until at least the end of September. The club initially planned to make Seimen, a promising 20-year-old coming off a successful loan, their first choice. Preseason performance from Bredlow has led to consideration against pursuing a new goalkeeper. Teammate Deniz Undav expressed strong support for Bredlow, emphasizing confidence in his abilities during this critical period.
