Chelsea Join Race for Stuttgart Star

Chelsea have entered the race to sign VfB Stuttgart midfielder Angelo Stiller, with the Blues monitoring the German international who has also been linked with Real Madrid and Manchester United. A move to the Premier League could see the 25-year-old double his salary to around €9 million.

Stuttgart are prepared to consider offers starting at €50 million for Stiller, whose contract runs until 2028. Since joining from Hoffenheim for €5.5 million in summer 2023, the central midfielder has developed into one of the Bundesliga's leading deep-lying playmakers and has played seven games for the German national team.
