The 19-year-old only joined Stuttgart in January but was attracting interest from Bayern Munich and Milan.

Though his agent spoke to both clubs, the Turkish centre-back opted to move to Schalke, where he is more likely to gain time as a first team regular.

Schalke also announced a new contract for US international Weston McKennie.

The midfielder has signed a new deal to 2024.
