There’s no umlaut in english, so it doesn’t signify any sound in english words, it’s merely a stylistic choice, kind of like writing a z at the end of a word instead of an s.

There’s already a ton of English words that are either directly from foreign languages or heavily inspired by them, including their pronunciation and spelling.

But that’s not what we’re talking about. It’s extremely extremely rare for a language to adopt a new written character.
