Thomas Hitzlsperger
|
Thomas Hitzlsperger (born 5 April 1982 in Munich, Germany) is a midfielder for VfB Stuttgart. He signed for VfB Stuttgart in Summer 2005, having left Aston Villa on a Bosman free transfer. This was the base for his nomination for Germany's World Cup squad 2006 but failed to make it into Klinsmann's starting eleven. Hitzlsperger joined Aston Villa from Bayern Munich, where he was a player in the youth team. He moved into the Aston Villa first team following the arrival of new manager Graham Taylor. He would go on to play a massive part in the Aston Villa side that would finish 6th under David O'Leary, before falling out of favour the following season.
Thomas left Aston Villa as a fan favourite, and stated that he might return to the club when the opportunity comes.
