Italian striker Federico Macheda has joined VfB Stuttgart on loan for the remainder of the season. This comes after an agreement was reached between Manchester United and the Bundesliga club.
Macheda had earlier been loaned out to other clubs like Sampdoria and QPR. Playing in the Bundesliga will definitely be a great experience for the lad who has been United's leading goalscorer at Under-21 level this term.
Macheda, who will wear No14 shirt at his new club, said
I have followed the Bundesliga and naturally know about Stuttgart. I am glad that I can now play for the club.
For me, it is about getting to know the team and what I can bring because we have a lot of interesting games in three different competitions in front of us.
