Galatasaray negotiates with Göztepe for Arda Okan Kurtulan

Galatasaray is currently in negotiations with Göztepe to acquire 23-year-old right-back Arda Okan Kurtulan. Reports indicate that Galatasaray has submitted an official offer of 6 million euros for the player, who is under contract with Göztepe until 2029.

Göztepe’s shareholder, Sport Republic, is reportedly demanding 8 million euros for the transfer, leaving a 2 million euro gap between the two clubs. Negotiations are ongoing as the transfer window approaches its close. Arda Okan Kurtulan, a former Fenerbahçe academy player, has drawn significant interest from the Galatasaray technical staff.

The potential sale has met with resistance from Göztepe supporters on social media, who have expressed concerns regarding the team's squad depth following several recent departures, including Anthony Dennis to Al Jazira.
