According to a report by reputed German journalist Christian Falk on CF Bayern Insider, Angelo Stiller is garnering a growing market heading into the summer transfer window. Barcelona and Arsenal are closely monitoring the progress of the German midfielder at Bundesliga club VfB Stuttgart.
Angelo Stiller has seen his stock skyrocket since joining VfB Stuttgart from TSG Hoffenheim in August 2023. The highly-rated midfielder has come leaps and bounds in the last two years, establishing himself as one of the best players in the Bundesliga. In addition, his exploits have helped him break into his national side.
The 24-year-old has been a solid holding midfielder while maintaining productivity in the final third. Stiller has contributed to 13 goals in 45 appearances across all competitions by finding the back of the net four times and providing nine assists.
Meanwhile, Stiller’s progress has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs across Europe. Barcelona and Arsenal are among the prospective suitors vying for the German midfielder’s signature heading into the summer transfer window. Meanwhile, the player has a release clause worth €36.5 million in his contract, although it will become active next summer.
Barcelona’s interest in Angelo Stiller is understandable. The Catalan giants are scouring the market for a midfielder heading into the summer transfer window, although it is unclear why they need reinforcement in the midfield department. Nevertheless, the VfB Stuttgart mainstay is a target for Barcelona. However, Christian Falk has suggested that Barcelona might not have the funds to afford a move for Stiller.
As for Arsenal, Jorginho and Thomas Partey face an uncertain future at the Emirates heading into the summer transfer window, with the veteran duo entering the final two months of their contracts. So, Stiller has emerged as a viable target for Arsenal.
The VfB Stuttgart midfielder has a release clause of €36.5 million in his contract with the Bundesliga club. However, it will not be active until the 2026 summer transfer window. So, it will be interesting to see how much Die Schwaben will demand to part ways with the 24-year-old German international this summer.
