Arsenal and Tottenham have reportedly stepped up their interest in Turkey star Baris Alper Yilmaz – as Galatasaray name their price for the talented winger.
The 24-year-old was one of many players at Euro 2024 to put in statement displays, with Yilmaz causing Liverpool and Netherlands centre-back Virgil van Dijk all sorts of problems with his pace and trickery in the quarter-finals.
The former Ankara Keciorengucu ace, who has also been linked with Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund, scored seven goals and bagged 12 assists in 55 appearances for the Turkish outfit last season, but it seems his days at Galatasaray may be numbered.
Indeed, Sedat Tahiroglu, the chairman of his former team Keciorengucu, has confirmed the Reds’ and Dortmund’s interest in the 6ft 1in right winger, who has scored 11 goals and registered 14 assists in 108 appearances for the Super Lig team since joining them in the 2021/22 campaign.
