Galatasaray's midfield transfer continues to be a topic of discussion. Vitaly Janelt, who plays for Premier League team Brentford and whose contract will expire at the end of the season, has moved to the top of the yellow-reds' transfer list.

The fact that the German player's contract will not be extended at the end of the season makes the transfer financially attractive.
Galatasaray's midfield transfer remains at the top of the agenda. It has been learned that the yellow-reds have placed Vitaly Janelt, who plays for Premier League team Brentford and whose contract will expire at the end of the season, on their transfer list.
NEW FOCUS ON A NUMBER 6 IN MIDFIELD
Galatasaray, which made intense efforts to sign Hakan Çalhanoğlu at the beginning of the season but was unsuccessful, has focused on the number 6 position in the winter transfer period in line with the report of head coach Okan Buruk. The management has prioritized strengthening this area.
EXPECTED CONTRIBUTION DID NOT COME
Okan Buruk did not receive the expected performance from Kaan Ayhan and Berkan Kutlu in midfield. During this process, the experienced coach assigned İlkay Gündoğan to the number 8 position, and after Mario Lemina took on a more defensive role, he deemed it necessary to acquire a new player for central midfield.
JANELT AT THE TOP OF THE LIST
In this context, it has been reported that Galatasaray, which continues its efforts, has placed Vitaly Janelt, who plays for Brentford, at the top of their list. According to a report in Sabah, the fact that the German player's contract, which will expire at the end of the season, is not being extended makes the transfer financially attractive. The management aims to add the 27-year-old player to the squad for a nominal transfer fee.
