With only a few hours left until the end of the transfer period, Galatasaray is working hard to secure a midfield transfer. They are interested in adding Eljif Elmas, who previously played for their eternal rival Fenerbahçe and currently plays for RB Leipzig in the German Bundesliga, to their squad. The yellow-red team has made contact to loan the star player and aims to complete the transfer without any transfer fee. It is almost certain that the 24-year-old player, who is struggling to find playing time in the German team, will leave the club.
Galatasaray, which has been accelerating its efforts for midfield reinforcement shortly before the end of the transfer period, has been linked to a surprising name that Turkish football fans are familiar with and has also played in our country.
ELJIF ELMAS' LOAN IS ON THE AGENDA
The yellow-red team has set its sights on Eljif Elmas, who previously played for their arch-rival Fenerbahçe and left a mark in the Super Lig. Contacts have been made regarding the loan of the star player.
EXPECTED TO LEAVE LEIPZIG
According to the claims in the German press, Galatasaray has made a move for Eljif Elmas, whose rights are owned by RB Leipzig. It was emphasized that it is desired to complete this transfer without paying any fee. The departure of the 24-year-old player, who has not yet found playing time in the German representative this season, is considered highly likely.
LAST TWO TRANSFERS WORTH 41 MILLION EUROS
Eljif Elmas, who played in 32 matches last season, managed to score 2 goals in these matches. Elmas, whose current market value is 20 million euros, has a contract with his team until 2028. The 24-year-old player, who can also play in the number 10 position in addition to the midfield, transferred from Fenerbahçe to Napoli for 17 million euros in 2019. RB Leipzig, on the other hand, paid 24 million euros for the Macedonian star's transfer fee.
