The future of Bilal El Khannouss could spice up the end of the summer transfer window. According to information from Sky Sport Germany, the Moroccan attacking midfielder is on the radar of two Premier League clubs, which have recently inquired about him with VfB Stuttgart. However, the identities of these clubs have not been revealed.
The German club is not planning to part ways with their Moroccan international easily. According to Sky, VfB’s management considers El Khannouss a key element of their sporting project and would only consider opening negotiations in the event of an offer exceeding 60 million euros. This amount reflects the confidence placed in the 22-year-old player, who was permanently signed this summer after a successful loan from Leicester City.
After a standout first season with Stuttgart, featuring 41 matches, 9 goals, and 7 assists across all competitions, Bilal El Khannouss confirmed his potential on the international stage during the 2026 World Cup. Starting six times with the Atlas Lions, his performances have bolstered his reputation and attracted the attention of several major European clubs.
At this stage, however, these are merely inquiries, and no official offer has been submitted to VfB Stuttgart. Furthermore, the German management has not received any transfer request from the player, although Sky recently revealed that El Khannouss had confided to some close associates that he was considering a possible departure this summer.
If an English club decides to take action in the coming weeks, it will need to convince Stuttgart with a proposal that meets the expectations of the German club. In the meantime, Bilal El Khannouss remains fully committed to VfB, where he continues to be one of the main pieces of the sporting project for the 2026-2027 season.
