Turkish champs want Akanji, but deal still pending
Galatasaray have reached a £15 million agreement with Manchester City for defender Manuel Akanji, according to transfer insider Fabrizio Romano.
The Turkish giants have already sent a contract proposal to Akanji’s camp, but as of now, no personal terms have been agreed.
Akanji still weighing his options
Despite the deal between the clubs, Akanji is reportedly taking his time and considering all options before making a final decision on his next move.
The 29-year-old Swiss international has been a key squad player for City, but his future at the Etihad has looked uncertain with increased competition in the back line.
Osimhen recruiting from within?
Interestingly, Victor Osimhen, who recently signed with Galatasaray, has reportedly reached out to Akanji, urging him to join him in Istanbul.
Galatasaray are looking to build a solid squad for their Champions League campaign, having just won the Turkish Süper Lig ahead of rivals Fenerbahçe.
