On April 26th, Sporx reported that Aston Villa had sent a scout to Turkey to keep a close watch on Galatasaray’s Barış Alper Yılmaz. The Villans continue to have the player on their agenda, and they are now joined by West Ham and a few other clubs in the transfer race.
Two days ago, Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio said Bologna have set their sights on the winger.
Fotospor relay this and then provide their own updates on Aston Villa, West Ham and other clubs.
It’s claimed Aston Villa, West Ham, Eintracht Frankfurt and RB Leipzig have all ‘stepped in’ to sign the 24-year-old in the summer window. Bologna have become the latest club to show interest in him.
According to Fotospor, the Turkey international is not in a rush to make a decision on his future until after the Euros.
Galatasaray are also not willing to let him leave soon, and they are banking on Barış Alper Yılmaz to shine in the Euros, so that his valuation can increase further.
Therefore, Aston Villa, West Ham and other interested parties have to wait, if they wish to sign the attacker.
