In the summer, VfB Stuttgart parted ways with Gonzalo Castro. Although the midfielder was disappointed, “What’s up, Bundesliga?” that he would return and help out.
In his three years at VfB, Gonzalo Castro has experienced a rapid up and down ride. Relegation was directly followed by promotion and ninth place after his return. Nevertheless, Sven Mislinat did not want to extend his contract with the veteran. The 34-year-old was very disappointed that there was no offer. The sports director explained that the club was counting on the “development potential of our top talents”. But this potential seems to be stagnating at the moment, and on top of that there is a lot of bad luck with injuries, so that the Swabians are once again stuck in the relegation battle.
Wouldn’t it be a good idea to bring back Castro, who is currently without a club, to the Neckar? Castro answered without rancour when asked if he would return if asked: “Yes, of course. Everyone knew and everyone knows that I felt very, very comfortable in Stuttgart. “
In addition, there was never a proper farewell due to Corona. “Simply bitter that I couldn’t say goodbye to the fans in the summer,” Castro looks back. “It would just be nice to return again, to find a crowning finish and to help the team, above all, also in sporting terms.” He could still give the boys a few things to take with them.
Castro: “A lot of coincidences would have to coincide “
However, the scenario is not particularly realistic. “Nothing has come so far, but I don’t think anything will come. There would have to be a lot of coincidences, “, Castro knows, keeps his fingers crossed for his ex-club and gives hope: “They have a good squad, which is not performing as it should at the moment, but I have good hope that it will happen.
