According to Kicker, Stuttgart have held 'intensive talks' with the player and his representatives.
The 21-year-old could come in to replace Marc Oliver Kempf, who's likely to be on the move this summer after turning down a contract extension at Mercedes-Benz Arena.
RB Salzburg are also said to be keeping tabs on Schlotterbeck, who would cost around €8 million.
Schlotterbeck made 17 appearances for Union Berlin during the 2020/21 campaign, scoring twice. He's under contract with Freiburg until 2023.
