Finn Jeltsch could leave VfB Stuttgart at the end of the season, with the defender having been linked with top clubs from across Europe.

Writing for the Swiss edition of Sky, transfer journalist Sacha Tavolieri claims that FC Barcelona and Inter have now stepped up their interest by contacting the player’s representatives to enquire about the possible terms of a transfer.

Jeltsch is said to be happy to remain at Stuttgart for the rest of the season, but a transfer in the summer of 2027 can't be ruled out.

Bulinews.com recently spoke with German scouting expert Florian Först about Jeltsch, and he singled out Bayern Munich as the favourites to sign the centre-back, while naming Arsenal as an alternative that would suit his playing style well.

After an impressive start to the season, the 20-year-old was recently handed his first Germany call-up, but he didn't get to make his international debut during the international break.
