Suns: Manchester United and Newcastle are interested in Stuttgart striker Walter Mad

1:35am, 2 August 2025Football

July 31, The Sun reported that Manchester United and Newcastle both interested in Stuttgart striker Walter Mad.

The 23-year-old striker, worth £40 million, was originally the closest to joining Bayern Munich, but the Bundesliga champion may withdraw from the competition as Louis Dias switched from Liverpool for £55 million, which provides opportunities for two Premier League giants.

The Red Devils and the Magpies both listed the introduction of the New No. 9 as a key task this summer. Both sides also contacted the supernova Cesco, which is priced at £70 million in RB Leipzig. Manchester United coach Amorin needs to strengthen his forward firepower, and Sesco and Watkins are both on the shortlist. Newcastle coach Eddie Howe is preparing for the possibility of losing Isaac, and the Swedish striker has expressed his hope to leave the team. Liverpool is the favorite next home to sign the Newcastle scorer with a price of 150 million pounds.

Stuttgart scorer Walter Mad is one of the hottest new stars in Europe this summer. Although Bayern has been paying attention to it for a long time, it is limited by the transfer budget. The new forward won the Golden Boot with 6 goals in the U21 European Youth Championship. He debuted from Bremen's youth training in his early years. He scored 2 goals in 51 games and then loaned to Elversburg to level up. Last year, he transferred to Stuttgart and scored 17 goals in 33 games.

Stuttgart sports director Walgmut said this month: "Waltermad was in excellent condition after returning to the team to train and got along well with his teammates."

Newcastle was repeatedly intercepted for signings this summer, and has missed forward goals such as Drapp, Joao Pedro, Mbemo and Ekitika.
