In the top ranking of classes, - The Stuttgart team yearns for these rivals.

In the VfB dressing room after their recent 1-0 victory in Augsburg, the Champions League anthem rang out loudly with some of the players joining in enthusiastically. Maximilian Mittelstädt, the left-back, expressed his satisfaction with the win and excitement for the future: "We've put in the effort for this. It still reverberates in the dressing room. But we're all eager to experience standing on the field and hearing the anthem next season. We can hardly contain our excitement."

Mittelstädt also has the European Championship in his home country approaching and has a clear desire for where VfB's upcoming away trips should lead. "Real Madrid wouldn't be terrible, right? Playing at the Bernabeu would be a dream. Maybe against the Milan clubs at the San Siro in Italy. Either way, it'll be an enjoyable season." .

His teammate, Deniz Undav, a striker, echoes this sentiment: "Madrid is the pinnacle. Who wouldn't want to play against players like Vinícius, Kroos, and Modric? If they win the Champions League again this year, it'll be fantastic to face the defending champions. I'm up for it, and I hope we'll defeat them right here in Stuttgart."

Only a few days ago, shortly after making sure promotion to the top division was secured, coach Sebastian Hoeneß (42) stated that taking on Real Madrid would be a special experience – a statement everyone in Stuttgart likely shares. Fabian Wohlgemuth, the sports director, shares this dream, also stating: "Sebastian Hoeneß mentioned Real Madrid. I'd agree with that, too."
