According to Fanatik, Galatasaray intervened to sign Rangers defender Ridvan Yilmaz before the transfer deadline.
The European team, who was hoping to capture the left-back this past season, is expected to get in touch with Philippe Clement’s team regarding a possible summer move, according to a report published on the Turkish outlet us website on Monday, August 5.
Yilmaz started the Light Blues Premiership season opener against Hearts, but there was a belief earlier in the summer that the Gers could look to cash in on the Turkish defender if the right offer arrived for his services [Chris Jack, 3 June].
Will Ridvan Yilmaz exit Rangers amid Galatasaray transfer speculation?
Clement won’t want to lose any more of his first-team squad now that the season is underway, but the current situation at Ibrox means that most players will be available for the right price, barring Jack Butland.
The Light Blues need to strengthen in a number of areas if they have any hope of closing the gap to Celtic at the top of the Scottish Premiership table and the only way further additions will be funded is by additional sales.
