Euro Paper Talk: Turkish giants in talks to sign Tottenham ace; Man Utd seal deal for starlet

Galatasaray are in London for talks with Tottenham about signing a midfielder, while Manchester United have struck a deal to add a Norwegian prodigy to their ranks next summer, according to Tuesday’s European papers.

 

GALATASARAY CHASING SPURS MIDFIELDER

Galatasaray are reportedly in England to hold talks regarding a transfer move for Victor Wanyama.

Turkish publication Fanatik claims that Galatasaray have sent one of their top officials, Sukru Haznedar, to London as they aim to seal a deal for the Kenya international.

The report adds that the Turkish giants are awaiting for word from Haznedar, with a budget to bring in Wanyama already prepared, although  Chelsea outcast Tiemoue Bakayoko remains an alternative option.

Wanyama’s game time at Spurs has reduced dramatically over the last 18 months, having previously formed an outstanding partnership with Mousa Dembele at the heart of Mauricio Pochettino’s midfield.

However, an injury before the start of last season meant the 28-year-old lost his place to Moussa Sissoko, and the arrival of record signing Tanguy Ndombele means Wanyama’s time in north London is all but done.

There is no mention of a fee at his stage, although it is highly likely that Spurs will allow the former Celtic and Southampton man to move on.

MAN UTD AGREE DEAL TO SIGN NORWEGIAN FORWARD

Manchester United are understood to have reached an agreement to sign Isak Hansen-Aaroen.

The 14-year-old (he turns 15 next week) is considered the best Norwegian prospect in a generation and United are said to have agreed a package to bring him to Old Trafford in summer 2020.

Reports in both the Norwegian media and the Manchester Evening News say the deal has been given the green light by United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who has spoken personally to the youngster’s parents and used his contacts in his homeland to get the deal over the line for the Red Devils.

While it will be some years before United see the talented attacker in their first-team ranks, it’s believed United have a star in the making on their hands in Hansen-Aaroen, with the player looking a low-risk addition to the club’s youth ranks.

And Hansen-Aaroen will become the latest youngster tipped for a bright future at United after a deal to sign French wonderkid Hannibal Mejbri was agreed on Sunday.
