It has been claimed that Galatasaray has pushed all boundaries in their long-standing pursuit of Bernardo Silva's transfer. The yellow-reds reportedly used high wages and the Champions League card in the transfer of the star player. It was stated that Dursun Özbek aimed to announce Bernardo Silva right after winning the election to give fans an election gift.
Galatasaray has started the countdown to make the biggest move of the summer transfer window. The yellow-red management has mobilized all its resources to add Bernardo Silva, one of the elite names in world football, to its squad.
GALATASARAY IN THE STRONGEST TRANSFER POSITION
European giants were in a race for the 31-year-old Portuguese superstar, who parted ways with Manchester City and has a free transfer. However, according to the latest claims in the British press; Barcelona and Juventus, which were previously involved, have stepped back from the transfer. With this development, Galatasaray has risen to the most serious and advantageous club position in the Bernardo Silva transfer.
ILKAY AND SANE STEP IN
In addition to the attractive annual salary offer presented to Bernardo Silva by the yellow-red team, the direct Champions League factor played a major role in the experienced footballer's decision. One of the biggest factors in the transfer process was the team's stars Ilkay Gündoğan and Leroy Sane. It was learned that the two, who were former teammates from Manchester City, made intense efforts to convince Silva and these meetings yielded positive results.
DURSUN ÖZBEK'S ELECTION GIFT
Galatasaray Club President Dursun Özbek personally leads this transfer. Özbek, who wants to make a big gesture to the community after the general assembly he is preparing to enter as the sole candidate, aims to give fans an unforgettable election gift by officially announcing the Bernardo Silva move as soon as he wins the election.
TO BE READY FOR THE FIRST CAMP
It is planned to quickly complete the transfer procedures for the Portuguese star, who has no transfer fee barrier. Just like last season with the Leroy Sane transfer, it is aimed for Bernardo Silva to be announced as the first transfer of the new season and to be ready for the team's first preparatory camp.
