Mauro Icardi, whom Galatasaray has offered a new contract, has not yet made a decision. While the yellow-red management awaits a response from the Argentine star, it has been claimed that head coach Okan Buruk wants a new forward as an alternative to Osimhen, regardless of Icardi's situation, and has planned the squad accordingly. It is alleged that if Icardi stays with the team, his playing time may decrease.
The future of Mauro Icardi, to whom Galatasaray has offered a new contract, remains uncertain. It has been claimed that technical director Okan Buruk wants a new striker transfer regardless of Icardi's decision, as the yellow-reds await a response from the Argentine star.
ICARDI WILL GIVE HIS DECISION AFTER HIS HOLIDAY
The future of Mauro Icardi, whose contract with Galatasaray has expired, is not yet clear. While the yellow-red management has offered a new contract to the Argentine striker, the star footballer is expected to announce his decision after his holiday. It has been reported that Icardi, whom President Dursun Özbek wants to stay at the club, has been offered 4 million euros for a 1-year contract.
HIS AGENT FOUND THE OFFER INSUFFICIENT
It has been claimed that the salary and contract duration offered to the 33-year-old footballer, who is said to earn 10 million euros, were deemed insufficient by his agent Elio Pino. Nevertheless, it was stated that Icardi's priority is regular playing time rather than a high salary. It was also reported that the Galatasaray management does not plan to change its current offer.
OKAN BURUK IS NOT MAKING HIS PLANS BASED ON ICARDI
It has been alleged that Galatasaray Technical Director Okan Buruk wants a new striker transfer regardless of whether Mauro Icardi stays at the club. It was stated that the experienced coach is looking for a goalscorer who would be an alternative to Victor Osimhen and is not shaping his squad planning around Icardi.
BERTUĞ YILDIRIM ON THE AGENDA
It has been claimed that the yellow-reds have sounded out Bertuğ Yıldırım, who plays for Başakşehir. If a new striker transfer takes place and Icardi stays at the club, it is stated that the Argentine star could drop to the third striker position. This situation is said to strengthen the possibility of a departure.
