Officially confirmed that defender Philipp Degen will miss the next season at the club he was loaned to.

The 27-year-old footballer arrived at Liverpool in 2008 from Borussia Dortmund, but due to injuries, he failed to establish himself in the main lineup.

"I am looking forward to a new challenge and the amazing fans of Stuttgart," Degen said. "I want to make the most of this opportunity."
