Liverpool and Arsenal are interested in signing 19-year-old VfB Stuttgart defender Finn Jeltsch. Both Premier League clubs have been scouting the German defender regularly, and senior scouts from both were recently in attendance to watch him. Jeltsch could cost around €35 million. Tottenham have also been identified as another club with potential interest, and Bayern Munich are said to be monitoring his development. Liverpool are looking for a replacement for Ibrahima Konate, who is set to become a free agent at the end of the season. Jeltsch, a Germany U21 international with four caps, joined Stuttgart in February 2025 and is under contract until 2030. In the current Bundesliga season, he has made 17 appearances and provided one assist. His current Transfermarkt market value is €25.00m.
