Earlier this month, Fotospor stated Arsenal were one of the clubs who made reservations with Galatasaray to be in attendance for their Champions League clash against Bayern Munich.
On October 21st, the same outlet reported the Gunners want to watch Sacha Boey closely in the Turkish champions’ derby clash against Beşiktaş.
It’s not clear whether Arsenal monitored the right-back last weekend but Sporx now state they were in Istanbul to follow him in the Champions League tie on Tuesday.
Boey was a target for Mikel Arteta’s side in the last window and back in June, he admitted that it’s “very flattering” to be linked to Arsenal. The fullback had also insisted that he aims to play in the Premier League soon.
According to Sporx, the player is ‘once again admired’ by Arsenal, and they are expected to knock on the Istanbul club’s door with a €20m offer in January.
The defender’s deal lasts until 2025 and it’s not clear whether €20m would be enough to convince Galatasaray to let go of Boey in the winter market.
