On June 12th, Türkiye Gazetesi reported Galatasaray’s Victor Nelsson has received a ‘first serious offer’ from Tottenham Hotspur.
The defender has a €25m clause and the Turkish club are insisting this figure to be paid to sanction his sale.
That’s according to Hürriyet, who state Tottenham have offered €3m less than the 24-year-old’s clause.
Last summer, Sevilla tried to take the centre-back but his employer convinced him to stay.
Galatasaray are unlikely to repeat it in this window because the Denmark international ‘wants to leave and go to’ Tottenham.
During a meeting with the club’s manager, Hürriyet say the player told them ‘let me go’, a year after he was convinced to continue at the club when Sevilla made an approach. He has also asked Galatasaray to ‘accept the offer’ made by Ange Postecoglou’s side.
Tottenham are said to have offered €22m for the Dane while Galatasaray are requesting for €25m to allow him to leave.
Nelsson is keen to join the Premier League side and the Istanbul club now have a decision to make on whether to accept their €22m bid or insist on getting €25m for him.
