Angelo Stiller release clause revealed

West Ham have finally been told what it would cost to sign Stuttgart’s midfielder Stiller after recent reports from Germany.

According to FussballEuropa, Stiller has a release clause of €40million (£34.6m) that kicks in next summer.

The report also adds that the 24-year-old has a contract until 2028 but will be available for a cut-price deal in 2026.

Stiller previously revealed a move this summer was off the cards as he concentrates on making Germany’s World Cup squad.

West Ham need to bolster their midfield ranks after some departures this summer, and signing the German would be a real coup.

Angelo Stiller would solve West Ham’s midfield troubles

West Ham’s midfield has been one of the more glaring issues at the start of the season.

Guido Rodriguez’s signing has been a real disappointment, with the Argentine failing to inspire any confidence and looking out of sorts at times.

Andy Irving is a decent option for the Hammers, but he lacks that star quality in the midfield that is severely missing.

Stiller would be the perfect option for West Ham, with his passing ability and the quality he possesses to control games.

The German is one of the best up-and-coming midfield stars in Europe, and West Ham would be remiss not to compete for his signature.
