This winter, Galatasaray could well be one of the main movers and shakers of this January transfer window. While the Victor Osimhen case remains pending, the Istanbul team is looking everywhere in the major championships to do its shopping. And as is often the case, the Turkish giant identifies undesirable elements or those who are in a contractual situation favorable to a departure.

This is how the names of Parisians Randal Kolo Muani and Milan Skriniar, Romain Paulo Dybala, Bavarian Leroy Sané and Malian Mamadou Sangaré were cited among the main leads for Galatasaray. So many high-sounding names, most of which however remain financially difficult to convince if their original club does not make the efforts, in particular by covering a large part of the salary.
Gouiri is still popular on the market
According to our information, there is a new offensive avenue for Galatasaray. This is Amine Gouri. At 24, the Algerian international (6 caps, 1 goal) is halfway through his third season at Stade Rennais. And the least we can say is that this 2024/2025 financial year is not very prolific for the former Lyonnais (16 matches, 2 goals, 1 assist). Under contract until 2027, will Gouiri have the desire to relaunch his career with a new challenge, especially if the SRFC benefits from it?

As a reminder, RB Leipzig and Bayer Leverkusen showed up last summer. This time, Galatasaray offered the player the opportunity to play in a European Cup as Osimhen's team currently occupies the sixth place in the Europa League standings. If Istanbul's interest is confirmed, it now remains to be seen how Galatasaray will be able to convince Rennes to let go of their striker who had been purchased for €28 million, knowing that the Turks risk favoring the loan formula. To be continued.
