According to Sacha Tavolieri, Manchester United are competing with Barcelona and AC Milan to sign Stuttgart defender Finn Jeltsch. Manchester United are monitoring Finn Jeltsch, who is developing into one of the Bundesliga's most significant prospects.

Manchester United have identified Finn Jeltsch as the long-term successor for a defender who could leave next summer, and it is claimed the player could be brought in as a successor for Martinez. It is understood that Juventus has also joined Manchester United in seeking to sign him, with both sides possibly making approaches in January. According to TuttoJuve, Stuttgart has no plans to sell the player in January, despite what the source described as strong competition to sign him. The report adds that Manchester United is now ready to compete with Juventus, Bayern Munich, and Arsenal to sign him. Stuttgart reportedly believes next summer represents their best chance to receive a large fee for him. A move in the winter is considered unlikely, as the report from TuttoJuve adds that a transfer during that window is only a theoretical possibility and that it would require a very substantial offer to persuade Stuttgart to change their plans. The market value quoted by leading specialist platforms had already reached around €35 million by the spring of 2026.

Man Utd are pursuing Stuttgart’s 20-year-old center back Finn Jeltsch, according to Fussballdaten.

CaughtOffside claims that Man Utd are interested in VfB Stuttgart defender Finn Jeltsch. It is asserted that the Red Devils are considering establishing contact with Stuttgart. Jeltsch is not in a hurry to leave, and Stuttgart do not want to lose the defender with one week remaining until the deadline. Man Utd would have to pay at least €50m to sign him.
