Juventus Pursues Angelo Stiller Amidst Midfield Shuffle in European Football
This summer, many of Europe’s elite clubs are focusing on revitalizing their midfield, with a common shortlist emerging among them.
It is well-known that Manchester United, facing departures of Casemiro and Manuel Ugarte, aim to sign at least two new midfielders.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid is also active in the market, looking to secure Aurelien Tchouameni to a new contract, which will limit their need for new signings.
Los Blancos are triggering a domino effect by targeting Manchester City’s Rodri, who, in turn, is considering one of Manchester United’s targets, Elliot Anderson from Nottingham Forest.
Juventus has entered the fray as well, seeking to bolster their midfield alongside Manuel Locatelli.
Juventus Make Contact for Angelo Stiller
According to Corriere dello Sport, the Italian club is now eyeing another long-term target of Manchester United, Angelo Stiller.
Initial contact has been made with Stiller’s agent to gauge his availability and willingness to join Juventus in Turin.
The 25-year-old has been in outstanding form for Stuttgart, contributing significantly to their fight for a Champions League spot in the Bundesliga.
This season, Stiller has made 48 appearances for the German side, scoring two goals and providing ten assists as they reached the Last 16 of the Europa League, where they were eliminated by Porto.
Juventus aims to sign the Germany international, who reportedly has a £31.6 million release clause, despite Stuttgart valuing him at £43 million.
Manchester United’s Interest in the Stuttgart Midfielder
Manchester United has been linked with Angelo Stiller since last summer, when it became clear they were looking to enhance their midfield, but the interest seemingly cooled down recently.
Despite shifting their focus to players like Sandro Tonali, Elliot Anderson, and Aurelien Tchouameni, the Red Devils still have an interest in Stiller.
As the club prepares for several signings, they plan to acquire one marquee player alongside a more budget-friendly option.
While targeting proven players like Tonali and Anderson, Stiller remains an affordable choice for Manchester United.
However, with Juventus appearing to take the lead in discussions, the Red Devils must act quickly if they wish to pursue their long-term target.
