Transfer Move from Galatasaray: Weston McKennie
Galatasaray, who defeated Hatayspor in the opening match of the new season in the league, continues its transfer work without slowing down. The yellow-reds are focusing on their former favorite Weston McKennie to strengthen the midfield area.
McKennie, who received an offer from Galatasaray last season but went on loan to Leeds United, is one step closer to wearing the red-yellow jersey this time. According to the news in Akşam newspaper, Galatasaray plans to add the 25-year-old American midfielder to its squad on a transfer fee if it manages to make it to the group stage of the UEFA Champions League.
McKennie, whose market value is shown as 28 million euros, can also play in the central midfield and right wing positions. It is stated that technical director Okan Buruk, who prefers versatile players, is very keen on this transfer.
Juventus is considering selling McKennie, who was transferred from Schalke 04 for 22 million euros in 2021, with one year left on his contract.
