Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur eye Galatasaray winger Arda Turan
According to reports in media, Turkish International Arda Turan is looking for a fresh challenge overseas and is all set to leave Galatasaray this summer. The report suggests that an unnamed top
European club has started negotiations with the player’s representative before a formal bid is launched. A host of Premier League club’s are monitoring the 24-year-old winger with Tottenham Hotspur and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 leading his chase.
The player’s agent Ahmet Bulut, has revealed to media that they are in an advanced stage of negotiations with a club and has asked potential suitors to lodge their
interest now or risk losing out on the Turkish international.
The winger has stayed loyal to his boyhood club Galatasaray, which he joined as a youngster but now it seems as though he wants to leave Turkey and move to a top Club
in England or http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Turkey-c3026 and was among the Top Ten Young Footballers Rankings in the world by a leading Spanish magazine.
There were rumors that Spanish side Atletico Madrid have won the race to secure his services, with the winger agreeing personnel terms. But the player’s agent refuted
those claims and insists negotiations are ongoing.
While talking to a Spanish newspaper, his agent Ahmet Bulut revealed a few months ago, “He has a contract with Galatasaray so he cannot sign for another club. I can
therefore confirm that he has not signed with any side.”
His agent was optimistic that his client’s future will be sorted out sooner rather than later, “However, I can confirm we are talking with one very big club in Europe
about a potential move in the summer. Unfortunately I cannot name the club. In the next 10-15 days we are looking to finalize a deal.”
Harry Redknapp has been accredited with an interest in the wing wizard and reportedly offered Mexican winger Giovanni Dos Santos as part of a deal to bring him to White
Hart Lane, but the offer was rejected. Tottenham are battling with Manchester City for the fourth Champions League spot and their position in the League may well decide their budget.
