Stuttgart previously agreed to buy Huntelaar for 18 million Euros, but the player's agent Aarnold Oosterveer said his client was yet to make a final decision on the move.

However, German magazine Bild confirmed that the Dutch international agreed personal terms with Stuttgart after they offered him 4 million Euros as a yearly wage.

Huntelaar joined Los Merengues from Ajax in January for 20 million Euros.

However, the signing of French striker Karim Benzema made him a surplus to requirements at the club.
