Stuttgart' s midfielder Daniel Didavi has agreed to join Wolfsburg for next season, both Bundesliga teams confirmed on Tuesday.

The "Wolves" have strengthened their squad for the upcoming campaign as Didavi has put pen to paper on a deal until June 2021.

"We are delighted that Daniel Didavi has opted for Wolfsburg. We have intensively observed his development over a long period. In the last years, he has developed into a key player and leader at Stuttgart. Didavi fits into our requirements profile and will increase our quality in the midfield," Wolfsburg' s chairman Klaus Allofs said.
