Hoffenheim and Stuttgart are interested in signing Armel Bella-Kotchap from Southampton in the summer transfer window, according to Fabrizio Romano. The well-known and well-respected Italian journalist has reported that Southampton have been approached by both Hoffenheim and Stuttgart for Bella-Kotchap, but no decision has been made yet.
Romano has written on X: “Understand Southampton have received two approaches for Armel Bella-Kotchap: Hoffenheim and Stuttgart are both interested.
“No agreement so far but both clubs have approached Southampton, Saints sources confirm.”
Bella-Kotchap has been on the books of Southampton since 2022 when he joined from VfL Bochum. The Germany international central defender has since been out on loan at PSV since then. Southampton will play in the Premier League next season after winning promotion from the Championship via the playoffs. Bella-Kotchap has made 24 appearances in the Premier League so far in his career. He has given two assists and kept three clean sheets in those games.
