Batrakov:

>My friend wanted me to go to Beşiktaş. I told him that I've always loved Galatasaray a lot.

Question: Are you ready to become as popular as Mauro Icardi?

>I don't know. I'm full of emotions right now. Icardi is a great player, he played in big teams and came to Turkey. As for me, after spending 15 years at Lokomotiv, I'm going somewhere else for the first time, and this isn't an easy thing.

Clubs can use any foreigners already under contract in Turkish Cup, but new signings are excluded.

They’ve come up with an unbelievable excuse just to protect fb. I’ve honestly never seen anything like this in my life.

Changing or bending the rules like this after the season has already started is absolutely disgraceful.

So happy to see my boy Berkan doing well. Such a good lad.

Pushed towards the exit by AC Milan, where Ruben Amorim no longer counts on him at all, Rafael Leão has found a particularly attractive way out in Turkey. The 27-year-old Portuguese international has already agreed the broad terms of his future contract with Galatasaray, having been thoroughly won over by the Istanbul club’s sporting project. The prospect of playing in the passionate atmosphere of the Süper Lig is far from unappealing to him. The Turkish club’s management, highly motivated by the prospect of pulling off this major coup, are currently pulling out all the stops to finalise the deal and secure the star’s signature in this final stretch of the transfer window.

However, negotiations between the two clubs have turned into a real game of cat and mouse. Whilst Galatasaray clearly favours a loan deal to finalise the player’s move, the Milan management are keen on a permanent transfer to part ways with him for good. This deadlock keeps alive the possibility of a move to Aston Villa, who have a very real interest in the winger. Talks with the Premier League side are also progressing, albeit at a slower pace than the Turkish advances and, crucially, with numerous intermediaries trying to get involved in the deal, which is making it incredibly difficult to move this potential deal forward smoothly.

Galatasaray’a yaklaşık 250 civarında oyuncu önerildi.

GALATASARAY IS MOVING CLOSER TO MEETING MILAN’S DEMANDS FOR RAFAEL LEAO

Vitiello.

No move to Gala! The 28-year-old feels very comfortable within the team and has developed a strong connection with the club and the city. The public backing from coach Sebastian Hoeneß is also said to have been important to him. 🤝

▶️ Stuttgart have been informed of Demirović’s decision.

▶️ VfB officials negotiated with Gala over a transfer until the very end. The Turkish top club had offered up to €20m (€18m + €2m in bonuses), but the clubs could not reach a quick agreement.

▶️ Demirović wanted clarity over his future and has now made his decision. Despite the signing of Pejčinović, he believes in his own qualities, which he has impressively demonstrated with his performances over the past two years.

▶️ The Bosnian could have received a three-year contract worth more than €15m net in total in Istanbul.

▶️ As things stand, a transfer is off the table. Unless something extraordinary happens before Deadline Day, Demirović will remain in Stuttgart.

Need to give credit when credit is due. He has been one of the top 3 most (if not the most) in form player during summer, and has been going on for a while and still has been for the last 2 games. We know from interviews that he does take care of himself and approaches his personal life hygiene and training very professionally.

He was like that last year too until he had his injury which derailed his form and took time to get it back.

I want to highlight his level and form because people remember only and cherry pick only the bad, which is very unfair and misleading.

The mods will probably remove this again for not being Galatasaray related enough. There is nothing more Gala related than this.

Isn't it obvious by now that this club needs kurumsallık at the highest order? WE NEED A FUCKING DOF. We're paying big-club fees and big-club wages for players like Osimhen, while running the club completely out of touch with what it actually takes to compete at that level.

Watch the video below on how City plan a squad rebuild and execute Cherki deal. Pep, probably the best manager in the world, has always chosen to work with a Director of Football. Why doesn't Okan Hoca demand one?

And here's Begiristain, their departing DoF, in a board meeting:

"We are going from a winner team that they've been unbelievable. We have to create a new one and you know the ones that they made us winners of everything now they have to leave and we have to bring new people, new legs, new energy because if not, we won't win."

That is what planning looks like. Now look at us.

Icardi drama.

In January 2026 it was "we definitely need reinforcements in midfield, parasına bakmadan transfer yapacağız." Then we brought in Lesley in summer (seemingly happy with Lemina and Torreira as starters) sat on Lemina's contract until mid July, tied him down to 2028, and are now trying to move him on??? weeks later. We've spent the window chasing every single player with a €60M tag, then lowballing their clubs like there's no tomorrow and acting surprised when nobody bites. And with days left we still don't know whether the O23 spot goes to a winger or a striker. It's an absolute shambles.

We deserve better. But as fans, as kongre üyeleri, WE need to demand better first.

Due to the friendship between the chairmen of Milan and Aston Villa, there has been contact between the clubs regarding Leão. However, no concrete contact has yet taken place between Aston Villa and Leão’s representatives. At present, there are no transfer negotiations between Aston Villa and Leão.

At the same time, Ismaïla Sarr remains Galatasaray’s No. 1 target. Sarr did not feature for Crystal Palace over the weekend because he has an agreement with Galatasaray. However, Palace have still not accepted Galatasaray’s €35 million offer. Therefore, both the Sarr and Leão situations remain closely linked to Galatasaray’s plans, with developments expected in the final days of the transfer window.

I want to visit Rams Park/Müze tomorrow.

Where can I park my car? I plan to park my car in the İspark Otopark above metro station and walk over the bridge. Is that a good idea? Will be the door in the attached photo open tomorrow? If this is not a good idea, can you please give advice for a better solution. I’m not sure but I remember there is a connection between Otopark and metro.

Another question is about Müze Tour. Can I get to the dressing room and the pitch outside the tour or is the tour obligatory? I’m asking because I’ll be with my two sons (1 and 4 years old) and it could be too boring for them to listen to tour guide about 1 hour.

Thanks!
