Turkish giants exploring options amid Ter Stegen injury setback and transfer complications
Galatasaray Eye Donnarumma After Ederson Talks Stall
Galatasaray've turned their sights to Italy’s Gianluigi Donnarumma with negotiations for Man City’s Ederson proving difficult according to Spanish outlet AS.
The Turkish champions initially targeted Marc Andre ter Stegen hoping to lure him after he reportedly fell out of favor under new Barcelona coach Hansi Flick.
However a back injury has ruled out the German goalkeeper forcing Galatasaray to halt discussions.
Galatasaray reached personal agreement with Ederson offering the Brazilian shot stopper net salary of 6 million euro per year plus bonuses. But Man City are demanding 10 million euro for the transfer, a fee the Turkish side's hesitant to match.
With Ederson’s move stalling Gianluigi Donnarumma's emerged as viable Plan B. The PSG goalkeeper’s future remains uncertain as his contract expires next summer and no renewal has been agreed.
Galatasaray's head of transfers Abdullah Kavukcu confirmed to AS:
"We have list of targets. Donnarumma's among them but we must evaluate the financial conditions carefully"
Meanwhile head coach Okan Buruk added:
"Donnarumma's exceptional keepe of course I’d want him. Ederson's also great option but nothing is finalized"
