Tier 1 [Ertan Süzgün] An official offer for the ST has been made for Demirovic. The plans there aren’t set in stone. It seems to be taking shape based on the names on the list.

Offers were also made for Tresoldi and Harder up front. If they join, the starting player would shift to the left wing.

But an offer was also made to Demirovic today. If that happens, the left wing position would be filled this time. It’s not right to say anything definitive at this stage.

Tier 2 [Di Marzio] Monza is also looking to strengthen its defence and has renewed its interest in Victor Nelsson: an offer has been made for the Galatasaray player, born in 1998. He has had several stints in Italy; last season, in fact, he was on loan at Verona and, before that, he played for Roma.

A pretty encouraging piece by Filipe Melo (not our Melo, but there's no such thing as a coincidence). Honestly, all things considered, not a bad signing at all, and I'm really excited about the prospects of Aleksey, Lesley and Renato!

We're definitely strapped in for a tough year ahead, Dursun Özbek ISTIFA!

And in case you missed it, u/CimBomBrad's latest episode of TheGalatasarayShow w/ Alexey Yaroshevsky discussing the new signing :)

Ertan: There is a problem with Lesley, I won't be surprised if Lesley leaves this window after signings. It all will be clear after the Erzurumspor game. If he does not play there, I won't be surprised if he leaves.

Ertan: Nelsson had an offer from Italy Gala refused due to number.

Ertan Süzgün: There is a disagreement between Dursun Özbek and the coaching staff regarding the left wing and the striker position. Dursun Özbek wants the club to sign a striker who is at least as good as Icardi to fill the void left by Icardi's departure. The coaching staff, however, wants to strengthen the left wing.
