Those responsible at Sturm Graz had already made it clear that Alexander Prass would be allowed to go. “We are prepared for that,” coach Christian Ilzer now says of the “Crown newspaperquoted.

The actual transfer fee could also be significantly higher given the numerous interested parties.
Market value of Prass in Graz increased tenfold – discussions about VfB Stuttgart
With a valuation of 700,000 euros, Prass came from Liefering in 2021. Since the spring of last year in particular, things have gone up steeply.

The fact that the rapid development of the select player could continue in the German upper house has been discussed for some time. “I can already imagine the transfer if Sosa leaves us,” was the first reaction of TM community member “ZosoZep” to the rumor about VfB Stuttgart – on the other hand, “too expensive to get him as a challenger.” In any case, Prass recently collected about as many goal preparations as Borna Sosa, who is about to leave Stuttgart.
I personally don’t think 8m will be enough and Sturm will let him go for the price.
