United and Rivals Monitor Stuttgart Defender Finn Jeltsch

Manchester United are reportedly tracking VfB Stuttgart centre-back Finn Jeltsch alongside Arsenal, Liverpool, Real Madrid, and Bayern Munich. According to Fussball News, Stuttgart would only consider opening talks for a permanent transfer fee between €50 million and €60 million. United have reportedly sent scouts to watch the 20-year-old defender in person on multiple occasions.

Stretty News notes that Jeltsch remains under contract until 2030, making a January departure almost impossible without an exceptionally high offer. United's defensive search follows ongoing issues, including Matthijs de Ligt's ten-month back injury, but the club has not submitted a formal bid for Jeltsch.
