As the transfer window heads into its final stretch, Manchester United fans have been left with mixed emotions. Reports initially suggested that a delegation from Old Trafford had travelled to Stuttgart to complete a deal for Angelo Stiller, but those claims have since been debunked. Reliable sources, including Fabrizio Romano, confirm that Stiller is expected to remain at Stuttgart and that no negotiations are currently active.
This revelation comes alongside another blow: according to talkSPORT, it is now unlikely that United will sign any midfielder before the window closes.

🔴 Why United Wanted a Midfielder
New head coach Rúben Amorim has been clear in his desire to strengthen midfield options. His tactical system demands balance, energy, and technical ability at the heart of the pitch. With Casemiro entering the twilight of his career and Bruno Fernandes operating higher up, United have lacked a reliable two-way midfielder who can control tempo and break lines.
Targets such as Carlos Baleba of Brighton were considered earlier in the summer, but talks never progressed to a final stage. The collapse of the Stiller link now leaves Amorim facing the season with largely the same midfield core.

⚽ Other Business Already Done
While midfield remains a frustration, United haven’t been idle this summer:
✍️ Matheus Cunha was signed to add creativity and attacking thrust.
✍️ Bryan Mbeumo joined to provide versatility across the front line.
✍️ Benjamin Šeško arrived as a long-term centre-forward solution.
These deals strengthen United’s attacking options, but the absence of a midfield signing risks leaving the squad imbalanced, especially when competing across the Premier League, Champions League, and domestic cups.

🧤 Goalkeeper Situation
Interestingly, while a midfielder looks unlikely, there is still a chance United could move for a goalkeeper before the deadline. Links to names such as Emiliano Martínez and Lammen's continue to circulate, with Amorim keen on competition for André Onana.

🔮 What’s Next for United?
With less than 24 hours to go, it appears Manchester United will:
❌ Miss out on midfield reinforcements.
✅ Rely on existing options like Casemiro, Fernandes, Ugarte, and academy star Kobbie Mainoo.
⏳ Possibly push late for a goalkeeper deal.
The real focus may now shift to January, when the club will reassess midfield targets and aim for a more permanent solution.
