"Leicester City midfielder Bilal El Khannouss could be making his move permanent to Stuttgart, following loan spell, according to BILD. After departing the Foxes on loan late in the summer transfer window, El Khannouss has impressed in the Bundesliga, prompting Stuttgart to explore triggering an 18.5 million buy-out clause. With Leicester navigating financial constraints and off-field pressures, the Moroccan's potential departure may mark a defining transfer in their rebuilding project."
"The loan deal reportedly included a 18.5 million purchase option, which the German side now seem inclined to activate after being satisfied with his performances. Stuttgart already paid Leicester a loan fee of around 3.5 million, and with El Khannouss adapting well, they are making a push to make his stay permanent. El Khannouss's loan to Stuttgart may have started as a temporary experiment, but all signs point to permanence."
Bilal El Khannouss moved from Leicester City to VfB Stuttgart on loan late in the summer transfer window and has impressed in the Bundesliga. Stuttgart paid a reported €3.5m loan fee and hold an €18.5m purchase option they are now considering activating. Leicester face financial constraints and off-field pressures that make sanctioning the sale sensible despite losing a promising 21-year-old midfielder. Stuttgart value the player’s adaptation and Bundesliga continuity offers a stable environment for his development. Leicester have maintained results without El Khannouss while rebuilding after a second relegation in three years and aim for immediate promotion.
