VfB Stuttgart midfielder Bilal El Khannouss has moved to end speculation over his future ahead of the transfer deadline.
“I will stay. The decision has already been made,” El Khannouss confirmed to Bild.
Newcastle United, Nottingham Forest and Galatasaray are among the clubs to have been linked with a move for the Morocco international in recent weeks.
El Khannouss joined Stuttgart from Leicester City last summer on an initial loan deal, which was later made permanent for a reported €15 million.
The 22-year-old has scored nine goals and provided seven assists in 43 appearances for the Bundesliga side so far.
