Galatasaray, facing an Aston Villa obstacle in the transfer of Rafael Leao, has turned its attention to Noa Lang, who wore the jersey on loan last season. It has been claimed that the yellow-reds have made initial contact with Napoli and prepared an offer close to 25 million euros for the Dutch star.
Busy hours are underway at Galatasaray for a winger transfer. The yellow-reds, who have been making attempts to add Rafael Leao to their squad, have turned to alternative names following developments in the transfer. A very familiar name has entered the top of Galatasaray's list: Noa Lang.
WHEN LEAO FAILED, ROUTE TURNED TO NOA LANG
Noa Lang, who spent the second half of last season on loan at Galatasaray, has come back onto the yellow-reds' agenda. According to a report from Italian media outlet Calciomercato, Galatasaray has contacted Napoli Sporting Director Giovanni Manna regarding the transfer of the Dutch winger.
25 MILLION EUROS ON THE TABLE
According to information reported by Italian journalist Alfredo Pedulla, Galatasaray is preparing to make an offer close to the 25 million euros Napoli is asking for Noa Lang.
It was stated that the transfer could take place either through a direct permanent transfer or a loan formula including an obligation to buy. It was also noted that Napoli is only open to Lang's departure under the condition of a permanent transfer or a mandatory purchase clause.
HE KNOWS GALATASARAY WELL
Noa Lang came to Galatasaray on loan from Napoli in the second half of the 2025-26 season. The 27-year-old footballer produced 2 goals and 3 assists in 19 matches he played in all competitions with the yellow-red jersey. The Dutch star stood out with 2 goals he scored against Juventus in the Champions League. It was stated that Galatasaray, due to knowing the team and the Süper Lig closely, is favorable to the Noa Lang option, and that negotiations with Napoli will continue.
