Bilal El Khannouss’ move from Leicester City to VfB Stuttgart is looking extremely likely to be made permanent next summer.

That’s according to SportBILD, who report that El Khannouss has quickly established himself as ‘THE difference’ at the German club.

He joined them on loan late in the summer transfer window. But that’s not stopped him quickly establishing himself as a key player and proving it in the stats. He already has three goals and two assists to his name.

Everyone at the club appears convinced of the Leicester City loanee. And that’ good news as the loan deal has a purchase obligation tied into it.

According to SportBILD, the terms of that deal ‘almost certainly results’ in the deal being made permanent. That’s because the ‘barriers’ to a full transfer are ‘low’. In other words, the conditions are likely to be easily met.

That deal will be valued at €18m plus another €1m through possible bonuses. It’ll be a fee that Stuttgart will be happy to pay if he continues to impress as he has done since arriving from Leicester in the summer.
