The Serie A side allowed Stankovic to leave for Club Brugge in the summer for €10 million.

However, the Nerazzurri inserted a buy-back option of €23m for 2026 and €25m for 2027.

Additionally, they included a 12-15% sell-on clause.

At just 21, Stankovic is quickly becoming one of the brightest young midfielders in the Belgian league.
