Former Galatasaray football player and commentator Hasan Şaş evaluated the transfer agenda of the yellow-red team on the SporON YouTube channel. Şaş's comments, especially regarding Ederson and Maestro, drew attention.
"MAESTRO IS A SPOT-ON TRANSFER"
Hasan Şaş stated that he has a positive approach to the Maestro transfer, emphasizing the young player's performance in the Fenerbahçe match. Reminding that Maestro was born in 2003, Şaş said, "Everyone saw what kind of player he is in the Fenerbahçe match. A spot-on transfer. If something happens to Torreira or Lemina, there is a player you can rely on there," he expressed.
"IMAGINE PRESSURE IN THE FUTURE"
Şaş, who said that Galatasaray has forgotten about pressure in the future, also shared a possible squad formation. Imagining Hakan Çalhanoğlu in a playmaker role in the midfield, Şaş stated, "Imagine the Maestro-Torreira duo applying pressure together with Osimhen. If Barış Alper Yılmaz and Yunus Akgün join in, the physical level would be incredible. That's why I find the Maestro transfer positive," he said.
"I WATCHED FOR 15 SECONDS, THIS IS THE REAL DEAL"
Hasan Şaş used much bolder expressions for Ederson. Stating that he watched the Brazilian player for a short time, Şaş said, "After watching Ederson, I said, 'This is the real deal.' I watched for a total of 15 seconds, then I turned it off. I asked how much they want, 40 million euros… I said, 'Okay,'" he drew attention with his words.
"THE MIDFIELD I WANT FOR THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE"
Describing Ederson's playing style, Şaş said, "The midfield I want in the Champions League is exactly this. A player who takes the ball and dribbles, makes the opponent follow, strong, powerful, but very expensive," he expressed.
"CAN GALATASARAY PAY 40 MILLION EUROS?"
At the end of his remarks, Hasan Şaş pointed out the cost, saying, "I don't know if Galatasaray can pay 40 million euros anymore," he evaluated.
