Stuttgart have officially exercised their option to purchase Leonidas Stergiou for €2 million, securing the defender on a permanent transfer. The Swiss international, who has been on loan, will now remain with the German club until June 2028.
Stergiou, known for his robust defensive skills and ability to play out from the back, has evidently impressed the Stuttgart management enough to warrant a long-term commitment. This move ensures that Stuttgart will retain his services for the prime years of his career, bolstering their defensive lineup as they strategize for future competitions.
