Interest from the Premier League is growing in Galatasaray's national star Barış Alper Yılmaz. It has been reported that the red-and-yellow club, which rejected Everton's offer of approximately 41 million euros, is demanding at least 50 million euros for the player, who is also being followed by Tottenham. If Barış Alper leaves, it is planned to sign either Rafael Leão or Gabriel Martinelli.
Interest from European clubs in Galatasaray's players continues as the team aims to enter the new season with significant reinforcements while keeping its championship squad.
In addition to Victor Osimhen, Barış Alper Yılmaz has become one of the notable names in the transfer market. The national player, whose transfer to Saudi Arabia was not permitted by the management last season, is now being pursued by Premier League clubs. It was reported that Everton made an offer of approximately 41 million euros for Barış Alper, but Galatasaray did not accept this amount.
TOTTENHAM ALSO ENTERS THE PICTURE
It was stated that after Everton, Tottenham also entered the picture for Barış Alper Yılmaz and is closely following the national player. Galatasaray's management does not plan to sell their player. However, if Barış Alper wants to play in the Premier League, his transfer will not be blocked.
WILL NOT GO BELOW 50 MILLION EUROS
The yellow-red management has set Barış Alper's minimum transfer fee at 50 million euros. It was noted that since Galatasaray will pay a 20 percent share to Barış Alper's former club Keçiörengücü from any potential sale, they will not consider offers below 50 million euros.
LEAO AND MARTINELLI PLAN
In case Barış Alper Yılmaz leaves the team, Galatasaray's plan for a winger transfer has also become clear. It was stated that the yellow-reds plan to add either Rafael Leao or Gabriel Martinelli to their squad in this scenario.
