Bosnian international, Vedad Ibišević has extended his stay at Suttgart after agreeing a one year deal
He has been plying his trade at the Budesliga side for they past two years after transferring from fellow Bundesliga outfit 1899 Hoffenheim. He did have two years remaning on his current contract but decided to extend it. Ibišević will hope to carry on his goal scoring form after netting at the World Cup for Bosnia in their 2-1 loss against Argentina.
Many fans will be very glad he decided to extend his stay at the club after Stuttgart knocked back a bid from English club, West Ham, thought to be in the region of £7mil. Sam Allaryce is currently looking for cover after Andy Carroll was ruled out for three months after ankle ligament damage.
Stuttgart coach, Armin Veh, made a comment on his contract extension: "Vedad is an important player for me and for the team. In the short time so far I've worked with Vedad, he has made a very good impression. I'm very pleased that Vedad has sent a clear signal that he sees his footballing future here at Stuttgart."
The striker also commented on the positive news:
"I love playing for VfB, so I am delighted," Ibisevic told Stuttgart's official website. "We can develop something here again, and I would like to contribute with my services. We can experience all together better times with the club."
