VfB Stuttgart sets high price for Finn Jeltsch amid Premier League interest

VfB Stuttgart has set a high valuation for 20-year-old defender Finn Jeltsch amid reported interest from three Premier League clubs: Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester United. While the player's estimated market value is approximately 35 million euro, Stuttgart is reportedly seeking offers between 50 million and 60 million euro to initiate negotiations.

Stuttgart holds a strong position as Jeltsch is under contract until June 2030. The club does not intend to sell the right-footed defender during the winter transfer window and may only consider a departure in the summer of 2027 unless an exceptional offer is received. Potential deals could also include performance-based bonuses and a percentage of any future sale.

The English clubs are reportedly monitoring Jeltsch to address defensive needs. Arsenal seeks depth in central defense, Manchester United faces uncertainty regarding the long-term futures of several current defenders, and Liverpool is preparing for a defensive transition as Virgil van Dijk enters the later stages of his career.
