Per-Sports: Real Madrid sets 24-year-old Stuttgart midfielder Stiller as the target for signing next summer

The Spanish media Daily Sports reported that Real Madrid set 24-year-old Stuttgart midfielder Stiller as the target of signing next summer.

Stiller appeared on Real Madrid's signing list this summer, based on the suggestions made by Xavi Alonso to strengthen the midfield. However, due to the back line's injury surge, the club has listed other positions as its top priority. The team spent nearly 120 million euros to introduce Heisen (59 million euros), A Fee (50 million euros) and Arnold (10 million euros) and invested in signing Mastantono (63 million euros).

Xavi Alonso suggested signing Stiller to strengthen the lineup. However, the club has invested funds in other urgently needed positions considering that the current midfield configurations with Joan Ammeni, Valverde, Camavenga, Guerre, Bellingham and Sebalos have become saturated. If a player leaves the team (such as in Sebalgo), signings are required, although Xavi Alonso also trusts the youth training system.

However, Real Madrid has not forgotten Stiller and continues to pay attention to it as a potential signing target in the summer window of 2026. Stuttgart and Stiller are signed until 2028 and will not be released easily. The current player market valuation has reached 45 million euros. Stiller's continued progress has pushed up his value, and his playing style has attracted the attention of many wealthy families, and Bayern has also shown interest in signing contracts.

Stiller's future depends on his performance this season. If he can maintain the upward momentum since joining Stuttgart, the club will take the initiative in transfers. Its value may soar, which will disrupt Real Madrid's plans, especially if Premier League clubs join the bidding.

Real Madrid also realized that the midfield must be strengthened next summer window, so Stiller is not the only target to investigate. The defense and the front line have been guaranteed, but technical players need to be supplemented in the midfield to balance the existing power-oriented configuration. Sebalos is seeking to leave the team for two consecutive seasons due to lack of playing time. If he leaves, he will make room for the midfield strong players that meet the tactical requirements of Xavi Alonso.
