VfB Stuttgart Bids Farewell to Loanees Rieder and Touré
DFB Cup champions VfB Stuttgart have confirmed the departures of Fabian Rieder and El Bilal Touré, who are returning to their respective parent clubs, Stade Rennes and Atalanta Bergamo.
Fabian Rieder, a midfielder who joined the club in the summer of 2024, played 21 Bundesliga matches for VfB Stuttgart. Rieder's standout performance came during a Champions League encounter with Young Boys Bern, in which he assisted three goals against his former club. Sporting director, Fabian Wohlgemuth, praised the Swiss player's contribution, stating, "Fabian quickly proved his quality in 33 competitive games."
El Bilal Touré's tenure with VfB Stuttgart was marked by a metatarsal injury, but the young forward managed to score the winning goal against Juventus Turin, securing his team's first Champions League victory in 14 years before his injury. Wohlgemuth described Touré as an "important option in our attack."
With neither club exercising the option to purchase, both Rieder and Touré are set to return to Stade Rennes and Atalanta Bergamo respectively. The move marks the end of their loan spells with VfB Stuttgart.
