Noah Darvich, the highly-rated VfB Stuttgart midfielder, is the subject of interest from Hertha BSC, with a loan move for the 2024-25 season appearing increasingly likely. According to Bild, the recently relegated Bundesliga side have identified the 19-year-old as their primary target to bolster their squad ahead of the new 2. Bundesliga campaign.
Darvich captained Germany to victory at both the U-17 World Cup and European Championship, showcasing leadership qualities beyond his years. He spent the recently concluded season primarily with VfB Stuttgart’s reserve team in the 3. Liga, where he impressed with ten goals and six assists in 29 appearances. This strong form has drawn attention from several clubs, including fellow Bundesliga side Werder Bremen and VfL Wolfsburg, who were recently relegated.
However, Hertha Berlin are believed to be leading the race due to their ability to offer Darvich more consistent first-team football. Werder Bremen’s interest is reportedly tempered by concerns over guaranteeing the young player adequate playing time, while Wolfsburg are also assessing other options. Stuttgart are seemingly open to a loan move to continue Darvich’s development, believing regular minutes are crucial at this stage of his career.
Transfermarkt.com currently values Darvich at €4million, but any potential deal is expected to be a loan with Hertha Berlin covering a significant portion of the player’s wages. The move would represent a step up in competition for Darvich, providing him with the opportunity to test himself in a more demanding league and potentially accelerate his progression towards the Stuttgart first team. This loan could prove beneficial for both clubs, giving Darvich valuable experience while providing Hertha with a dynamic young midfielder.
