Real Madrid Reaches Agreement With Transfer Target
Real Madrid has reached an agreement in principle with a Bundesliga star according to transfer ... More market expert Nicolo Schira, who cited anonymous sources on X, formerly known as Twitter. Real Madrid has reached an agreement in principle with a Bundesliga star according to transfer market expert Nicolo Schira, who cited anonymous sources on X, formerly known as Twitter. It was this summer that Madrid was meant to land Florian Wirtz from the German top flight, and the now former employers of new head coach Xabi Alonso in Bayer Leverkusen. As things stand, though, it appears as though wonderkid Wirtz will instead head to a Liverpool outfit likely to lose Trent Alexander-Arnold to Los Blancos, though Madrid is closing in on another top talent from the German top flight according to Schira. 'Agreement in principle between Real Madrid and Angelo Stiller for a contract until 2030,' the Italian tweeted on X. 'Real Madrid are now working to reach a deal with Stuttgart. Talks in progress,' Schira added. Stiller is of course Stuttgart's Angelo Stiller, who Alonso knows well from his time in Germany and is represented by the same agency as retired Madrid legend Toni Kroos - Sports360 GmbH. The Bernabeu has seen him up close too, with the 24-year-old impressive in a 3-1 Champions League defeat for his team there where he made 93 interceptions, 71 passes, four recoveries and also created a scoring chance. More defensive than Wirtz, Stiller could provide a link between the back line and more attacking center-of-the-park technicians such as Jude Bellingham, while putting in the hard yards that Madrid will need to do to catch up to rival FC Barcelona and disrupt newfound domestic dominance. With Stiller a product of Bayern Munich's academy, Alonso knows what he can give Madrid and believes that he will fit into his system easily according to AS. The Spanish newspaper adds that while Stiller isn't one of President Florentino Perez's primary targets in the summer window, Madrid is 'keeping an eye on" a budding talent which Transfermarkt currently values at $42.8 million (€38 million). With the 2024/2025 season not even wrapped up a week ago, Real Madrid continues to be linked with new signings. Already landing Dean Huijsen from Bournemouth, there have been further reports regarding advanced talks or agreements with the likes of Nico Paz and Alvaro Carreras.

Real Madrid's interest in Bundesliga midfielder is ‘growing'
Even though the summer transfer window is still a month away, Real Madrid have already shaken up the market, it seems. The club have already announced the deal to sign Bournemouth prodigy Dean Huijsen while Trent Alexander-Arnold and Alvaro Carreras deals are currently on the anvil. Advertisement However, Real Madrid won't stop there. After reinforcing the defence, the club are now actively looking for reinforcements in the midfield unit. Growing interest in Angelo Stiller To that end, a recent report from MARCA suggests that there is a growing interest within the Real Madrid camp on Angelo Stiller. Currently plying his trade for Stuttgart, the former Bayern prodigy has impressed onlookers with his stellar performances in the Bundesliga. A defensive midfielder by trade, Stiller is a feisty operator who can offer versatility and aggression in the middle of the park. Angelo Stiller may emerge as a serious option for Real Madrid this summer (Photo by) Real Madrid's interest in Stiller is hardly surprising as new coach Xabi Alonso is well aware of his abilities, having seen him closely in the Bundesliga. Advertisement Moreover, the report suggests that Real Madrid are looking for players who are less star-studded and more attuned to team work. At the same time, Real Madrid want to make sure these players can provide enough quality. In addition, the Spanish giants are ideally looking for players that will not attract a €100 million price-tag. Angelo Stiller, to that end, ticks all the boxes and could emerge as a serious candidate for Real Madrid as they look to beef up their options in the middle of the park. A prank by one of Stiller's teammates is already going viral, fuelling further speculation about a potential move to Santiago Bernabeu this summer.

Stiller out, Burkardt in for Germany's Nations League games
BERLIN: Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann has called up Mainz forward Jonathan Burkardt to his squad for upcoming Nations League games after Stuttgart's Angelo Stiller dropped out with an injury. Burkardt will join the team at their training base in Herzogenaurach on Friday, the German soccer federation said Tuesday, in preparation for the Nations League semifinal against Portugal in Munich on Wednesday, and the final or third-place playoff against either Spain or France four days later. The 24-year-old Burkardt has played three games for Germany. He was the Bundesliga's top-scoring German player with 18 goals for Mainz this season. Stiller, who starred for Stuttgart as the team won the German Cup on Saturday, dropped out with a recurrence of the ankle ligament injury that had kept him out for two weeks previously. The DFB said Stiller has 'not completely healed.' Stiller was involved in three of Stuttgart's four goals as they defeated Arminia Bielefeld 4-2 in the cup final.
