Yerry Mina stays at Cagliari after rejecting Turkish offer

Colombian centre‑back Yerry Mina has turned down a lucrative proposal from a Turkish club that would have paid him roughly double his current salary. The offer arrived just before the deadline for activating the €1.8 million release clause in his contract with Serie A side Cagliari.

Cagliari confirmed it will not pursue a sale unless a bid exceeds the clause amount, emphasizing Mina’s importance to the squad under coach Fabio Pisacane. The defender’s decision signals his intent to remain in Sardinia for the upcoming season, providing continuity for the club’s defensive line.
