With the nature of Atalanta loanee El Bilal Touré's injury potentially sidelining the Malian international long-term, VfB Stuttgart are apparently looking to pick up some additional attacking pop from the German second division. German footballing journalist George Moissidis - the VfB correspondent for Kicker Magazine - links the Swabians with Nürnberg rising star Stefanos Tzimas.
The 18-year-old Greek youth international is currently serving on loan at 1. FCN from parent club PAOK Thessaloniki. He's been immensely successful during his short stint in German football, scoring seven goals and registering one assist in 12 2. Bundesliga appearances. A new loan arrangement with PAOK could be arranged. Nürnberg could also purchase Tzimas outright and quickly "flip" him to the top tier side.
