The two clubs had agreed on a transfer fee of €3million for the 18-year-old with a future buy-back option of €12million.

However, the Bundesliga club's release of the player from their ranks came too late to complete the deal in time.

The news comes as a bitter blow for the Serbian midfielder, who has so far only played for Stuttgart's U-23's in the 3.Liga.
