Transfer Updates: Galatasaray Building the Squad for Next Season

Ahead of the summer transfer window, Galatasaray is formulating a new financial strategy. According to a report by Galatasaray Azərbaycan🦁🇦🇿, the club plans to adopt a policy of "high transfer fees and low annual wages." The club has set as its main goals the strengthening of the center defense, the midfield, and the number 10 position with high-level players.

One of the main points of discussion is Arda Okan Kurtulan. While GALATASARAY BAŞAKŞEHİR CANLI reports that Okan Buruk held talks with the honorary president of Göztepe, Mehmet Sepil, regarding the transfer, the reality seems more complex. The channel notes that Göztepe is demanding at least 15 million euros for the player, and that the club's management "is not considering selling Arda Okan" unless an offer that cannot be refused is received.

In addition, there is a connection between the moves and the club's revenue. According to Galatasaray Azərbaycan🦁🇦🇿, Galatasaray plans to move forward in negotiations for Kurtulan only if it succeeds in selling Roland Sallai for an amount of about 20 million euros. At the same time, it was reported that Ahmed Kutucu expresses a willingness to move to the ranks of Göztepe.

It is worth noting that there are gaps in the reports regarding the valuation of Göztepe players; while some sources cite high demands, GALATASARAY BAŞAKŞEHİR CANLI clarifies that the reports about receiving an offer of 15 million euros for the player Juan do not reflect reality, as the club has previously rejected higher offers.
