Stuttgart said Al-Dakhil’s injury rehab is “largely completed” and that he is expected to join his new team in training soon. Stuttgart finished runner-up in the Bundesliga last season to ensure it returns to the Champions League for the first time since the 2009-10 season, but saw several key players leave for rival clubs. Al-Dakhil could be a replacement for defenders Waldemar Anton, who left for Borussia Dortmund, and Hiroki Ito, who was sold to Bayern.
