The 23-year-old winger has inked a fresh term over an extension with the German top-flight campaigners following an outstanding outing so far this term
German-born Ghanaian winger Jamie Leweling has signed a one-year contract extension with Bundesliga side VfB Stuttgart, with the new deal set to come to a close in 2029, the club have confirmed.
The former Union Berlin flanksman has been an important figure at the MHP Arena and his impact has greatly been felt as he's now been handed a contract extension by his current employers.
''VfB have handed 23-year-old attacker Jamie Leweling a one-year extension to his current contract, tying him to the Cannstatt club until 30 June 2029,'' an official confirmation over the contract extension read.
The former FC Nürnberg Youth man had this to say right after signing his new deal: ''I know exactly what I have in VfB, so I’m really happy about this contract extension. The coach, the management and everyone in and around the club have faith in me and have shown me incredible support in my development. I want to get back on the pitch soon and pick up where I left off before my injury.”
Sporting director Fabian Wohlgemuth added: ''Jamie has become a difference-maker at VfB. As well as bringing an important spark to our game, he initiates and takes part in a lot of key moves. His international call-up is clear indication of the performance levels Jamie has achieved in recent months. We’re delighted to have Jamie’s unequivocal commitment and that this contract extension has enabled us to retain a player of enormous quality in Stuttgart.''
Since linking up with his current employers on a permanent deal during the summer of 2024, the former pVgg Greuther Fürth man has so far lived up to his billings in the German top-flight.
He has so far netted once and assisted two in 15 games across all competitions for VfB Stuttgart in this ongoing Bundesliga 2024/25 season.
He has represented the Germany senior national team in the Uefa Nations League in October this year.
