Fussballdaten.de reports that Arsenal are planning a concrete approach for VfB Stuttgart centre-back Finn Jeltsch, with Manchester United and Bayern Munich among the leading admirers.

The report adds Liverpool and Juventus have the 20-year-old on their radar. Stuttgart would seek around €50 million to open talks, and Jeltsch is under contract until 2030.

Jeltsch addressed speculation about Bayern a month ago, saying: “I’ve read that too. But it’s not something I’m really thinking about. My full focus is on the upcoming season with VfB. I have an ideal environment here and can play Champions League football,” he told Stuttgarter Nachrichten.

Jeltsch has drawn attention with his performances for Stuttgart, enhancing his reputation as one of the Bundesliga’s emerging centre-backs.

With multiple elite clubs tracking him, any proposal would need to meet Stuttgart’s stance to even enter negotiations.
