For example, when Liverpool signed Florian Wirtz, they managed to fend off both Manchester City and Bayern Munich to acquire his services, which shows how impressive their project must be.

Indeed, the Reds’ Premier League title win last term likely did most of the convincing, but the number of players they’ve managed to bring in this summer is incredibly impressive.

At the start of the summer, fans wanted to see a new defensive midfielder brought in to help cover that role with Ryan Gravenberch.

Now, however, as per a report from journalist Ben Jacobs via his personal X account, Manchester United have added him to their shortlist.

“One of the midfielders on Manchester United’s list of options is Stuttgart’s Angelo Stiller,” he wrote.

“No guarantee anything develops, or that any midfielder arrives, but internal discussions taking place over different targets.

“Stiller has come up in discussions as Manchester United now decide whether to sign another midfielder before the window shuts.”

As mentioned, early on in the summer transfer window, Liverpool were the ones leading the race for Stiller.

Of course, these are all just rumours at the moment, but if Liverpool are serious about bringing in another defensive midfielder, they can’t allow Stiller to join Man United this summer.
