Expert claims Man United have concrete interest in signing star with £32.6m release clause | OneFootball

Manchester United reportedly have a concrete interest in signing Stuttgart midfielder Angelo Stiller, whose release clause is a bargain £32.6m.

The 25-year-old has really caught the eye in the Bundesliga in recent times, leading to talk of Man Utd being keen on him from a variety of sources.

TEAMtalk have linked Stiller with United, while we’ve also previously received information about him being one of a number of names on the Red Devils’ list.

Now our colleague Christian Falk has confirmed interest from MUFC in his latest exclusive column for CF Bayern Insider, with details on his release clause and how it could change.

Angelo Stiller a concrete target for Manchester United

Discussing Stiller’s situation, Falk admitted United could sign him on the cheap, but also made it clear that Stuttgart have the option to increase the Germany international’s current buy-out clause.

“There is a lot of interest in Stiller from the Premier League; Manchester United are concretely interested,” Falk said.

“The Red Devils were there last summer but didn’t clinch a deal because they came too late in the transfer window. But this could be a serious option for them this summer.

“The 25-year-old has a release clause in his contract (€37.5m [£32.6m]), but VfB Stuttgart can buy this option from Stiller (for an amount between €2m-4m). Then, they’d have the idea of selling the midfielder for €50m [£43.5m].

“There are a lot of things that could happen, but I can say that there’s still a chance Stiller would leave Stuttgart in the summer.”

Would Angelo Stiller be a good fit for Man United?

Using our Transfer Fit rating system, we argue that Stiller looks a strong fit for United, with a high score of 19/25.

It’s clear that Stiller ticks a lot of boxes in terms of being affordable, as well as proven, but still not too old, whilst also clearly strengthening a position United are weak in.

One downside with Stiller is his lack of Premier League experience, but he’s played in the Champions League, so he’s no stranger to playing at the very highest level.
