“Rangers Defender Ridvan Yilmaz Nears Galatasaray Move Amid Transfer Talks”

Ridvan Yilmaz is anticipated to secure a late January transfer from Rangers to Galatasaray, as per reports from Fanatik.

The 22-year-old left-back has reportedly been convinced to join

the Super Lig club, but Rangers expressed reluctance towards a proposed loan arrangement, insisting on the inclusion of a transfer fee.

Talks between the Istanbul-based club and Rangers are set to

resume this week, emphasizing the potential for a temporary switch with a compulsory purchase agreement hinging on

specific “performance and stability conditions.”

Despite Galatasaray’s push for a loan deal,

Rangers seem resolute in their demand for a transfer fee, a stance

deemed fair to avoid allowing a first-team player to depart without financial compensation.

Yilmaz has been actively involved under Philippe Clement in recent

weeks, necessitating the identification of a replacement before any deal can progress.

As discussions unfold in the coming days, the situation is expected to

evolve rapidly, given the impending closure of the transfer window.
