Artem Stepanov News: Heading to Eredivisie

Stepanov will spend the second half of the 2025/26 season on loan at Utrecht from Leverkusen, his parent club announced Friday.

Stepanov didn't score a single goal in 13 appearances with Nurnberg in the first half of the 2025/26 season. He's expected to have more minutes at his disposal in the Eredivisie, a league where his physical traits could play to his advantage while also allowing him to mature, as he's only 18 years old.
