In the VfB Stuttgart power struggle, CEO Thomas Hitzlsperger and President Claus Vogt surprisingly took a step towards each other. The two feuding executives had a personal conversation with each other shortly before the game against RB Leipzig on Saturday night, as they wrote on Twitter.
“It was not the best days that were left behind, but today’s conversation with @ clausvogt1893 gives me confidence that we will solve the next tasks in the interest of VfB,” Hitzlsperger tweeted. Vogt described the exchange as a “conversation between men.” “Lately some things have not gone well. Now we both seek a common path in the interest of the club. “
The violent dispute became public after Hitzlsperger announced his candidacy for the VfB presidency last Wednesday. The 38-year-old wants to oust Vogt from the club in the next elections at the general meeting. In addition, he had massively attacked Vogt in the letter and accused him of various errors and ineptitudes.
A day later, Vogt responded with his own letter and defended himself against the accusations. If Hitzlsperger will keep his candidacy after the personal exchange opens.
