Leicester winger Bilal El Khannouss has joined Stuttgart on an initial loan deal.
The 21-year-old's move will become permanent with the Bundesliga club holding an obligation to buy.
El Khannouss cost Leicester £21m from Genk in August 2024 and made 39 appearances, scoring three times, but was unable to stop their relegation from the Premier League.
He had been left out of Marti Cifuentes' last two matchdays squads for the wins over Charlton and Birmingham City.
Crystal Palace held a strong interest in the Morocco international but with Leicester selling Kasey McAteer to Ipswich and James Justin joining Leeds, the Foxes were under no financial pressure to sell.
