Stuttgart Lining Up Voronin Move

VfB Stuttgart are lining up a move to bring Andrei Voronin back to the Bundesliga from Premiership side Liverpool.

Voronin has had a far from spectacular season at Anfield following his summer free transfer from Bayer Leverkusen. He has failed to cement a regular starting place with Rafa Benitez preferring Fernando Torres and Dirk Kuyt as his attacking options.

The Ukrainian international has made 19 league appearances mostly as a substitute and scored five times in the process. In his last season at Bayer Leverkusen he played 31 times bagging 10 ten goals.

Stuttgart sporting director Jochen Schneider has reportedly already made contact with the 29 year old’s advisor Andrej Golowasch over a possible move to the Gottlieb-Daimler Stadion.

Voronin’s contract with the Reds runs until 2011 but it is understood they are willing to unload the player as they seek to reinforce their squad for next season.

Stuttgart are also not averse to taking the forward on loan if a permanent move cannot be sealed.

The Ukrainian has had previous spells in Germany with Mainz, Cologne and Borussia Mönchengladbach.
