Galatasaray has begun negotiations with Udinese for the transfer of Nicolo Zaniolo, who spent the season on loan at Udinese. According to reports from the Italian press, Galatasaray is not inclined to reduce the previously set purchase option of 9 million euros for Zaniolo. Instead, they are considering an alternative formula involving a transfer fee of 5 million euros and a 50% share of any future sale. This situation is also linked to Galatasaray's desire to free up space in their foreign player quota. Zaniolo, who played 34 official matches with Udinese last season, scored 6 goals and provided 6 assists. Galatasaray is working to present the best offer to ensure Zaniolo remains with the team. The completion of this transfer would be an important step for Galatasaray in increasing their squad depth.
