Stuttgart are close to completing the signing of Denmark midfielder William Kvist.

The 26-year-old has agreed a four-year deal after Stuttgart negotiated a €3.5million fee with FC Copenhagen.

Kvist will undergo a medical today and officially pen a deal which ties him to the Swabians until 2015.

Stuttgart coach Bruno Labbadia said: "As a national team player and captain of FC Copenhagen, William brings a wealth of international experience. He will be an asset to the club."

Sporting director Fredi Bobic added: "The completion of this transfer is an important building block in our plans."
