The Johnny Warren medallist passed Monday's medical and signs from Melbourne Victory on a free transfer, with the A-League club to receive $180,000 in compensation under FIFA laws.

Rojas has agreed terms on a multi-year deal and the announcement is expected to happen on Wednesday in Germany (Wednesday night EST).

Rojas, 21, was scouted by dozens of European clubs with Werder Bremen and Austrian club Red Bull Salzburg expressing the most interest.

But it is understood Stuttgart was the only club that tabled an offer, with Rojas and his father departing for Germany last Thursday to complete the medical and sign off on the deal.

Stuttgart is currently 12th on the Bundesliga table and while the German league is one of the best in the world, Rojas said in March that he wanted to move to a club where he would play.

''With the decision that I make, it will probably revolve around those two things - making sure I play football and continue to push myself,'' Rojas said.

"It's important to continue to push myself, to become a better player and it's important to be playing games. That's probably the most important thing.

"No matter how hard you train and how much you do during and after training, it's always important to be playing the games and being in the match situations, that helps more than anything."

Victory hoped to retain Rojas after his breakthrough season, where he scored 15 goals, but it became evident that his sights were set on Europe when the Rojas camp refused to entertain the idea of extending his contract.

Rojas was signed from Wellington by former Victory coach Ernie Merrick and spent two seasons in Melbourne, though he struggled in his debut season, failing to score a goal.

But his stunning transformation this season saw him dubbed ''Kiwi Messi'' as he claimed the A-League player of the year award comfortably ahead of Alessandro Del Piero.
