Stiller's signing gets complicated: United enters the race and makes a strong bid for him

Manchester United has set its sights on Angelo Stiller, Stuttgart's midfielder, as one of its possible signings. According to reports from England, interest in the German player arises as the English club searches for alternatives to Carlos Baleba. The Brighton footballer, who was also liked at Old Trafford, now seems even more difficult to acquire.

Angelo Stiller's profile makes him especially attractive: he is a defensive midfielder with strong ability to control the game. His skills make him a logical option for Manchester United if its offensive priorities are solved. At 24 years old, the German is seen as a very viable option for the team managed by Rúben Amorim.

Angelo Stiller was already linked with Real Madrid

Angelo Stiller doesn't only attract interest in England. Since late spring, several media outlets indicated that Real Madrid had him on its radar as a possible successor to Toni Kroos. In fact, the German himself recommended his signing to the club for the midfield.

Angelo Stiller stands out for his passing accuracy and a style compared to that of Real Madrid's legendary German midfielder. However, it doesn't seem that the club will make an effort for him in the final stretch of the transfer window.

In the past month of May, Angelo Stiller's release clause was estimated at approximately €40 million. That was a figure considered accessible for teams with great financial capacity, including Real Madrid. However, Manchester United, according to reports from England, is in first place among the favorites to sign him.

What will Real Madrid do?

Everything indicates that Manchester United will hurry to finalize the signing of Angelo Stiller for the 25/26 season. Meanwhile, at Real Madrid the decision seems made: the player won't join the club in the current transfer window.

However, Angelo Stiller signing for Manchester United could be a problem, since his signing would ultimately be even more expensive. If Real Madrid wants to secure the German's services in the future, it already knows that it will have to pay an amount that will almost certainly exceed €50 million.
