Galatasaray want to part with two well-known players in order to reduce the club’s salary payments. Let Falcao and Feghouli go.
The Turkish record champions Galatasaray Istanbul are no longer planning with the two stars Radamel Falcao (35) and Sofiane Feghouli (31) for the new 2021/22 season. President Burak Elmas made this known to the Turkish press.
“Both players have done the club a remarkable service. However, their salaries are no longer sustainable. The services provided bear no relation to what we pay these players. I asked them to look for a new club,” said Elmas via Falcao and Feghouli.
Falcao came to Istanbul from AS Monaco for the 2019/20 season, Feghouli has even been under contract since 2017 – he moved from West Ham United to Gala at the time. Now Elmas hopes that both players will comply with the board decision or request.
Galatasaray: Kein Interesse an Morutan
Meanwhile, coach Fatih Terim’s team are also reported to be working on new players. Midfielder Olimpiu Morutan should be a big issue, Elmas has now denied this. “We haven’t even had discussions with the player’s agent. I don’t know where these reports are coming from. Some agents are using our name to raise the price of Morutan. Galatasaray won’t take any concrete steps here. There isn’t one Interest on our part. “
In the past 2020/21 season, Galatasaray only finished second in the Turkish title fight, although at the end of the season they had collected the same number of points as champions Besiktas.
