Veh reveals Boulahrouz deal

Stuttgart coach Armin Veh has revealed the Bundesliga club have agreed personal terms with Chelsea defender Khalid Boulahrouz.

The 26-year-old, whose stock rose considerably following his performances in Holland's Euro 2008 campaign, is expected to cost in the region of five million euros.

"He is just the man we were lacking," Veh told the Bild newspaper. "He is one who is not scared of getting involved when needed."

After two disappointing seasons with Chelsea and Sevilla, Boulahrouz should welcome a move back to Germany, where he enjoyed two productive seasons with Hamburg before making his 13 million euro move to the Blues in 2006.
