„Completely unfounded“: Galatasaray sets the record straight on Musiala rumors | OneFootball

Speculation about a surprise transfer of Jamal Musiala to Galatasaray has been definitively put to rest. The Turkish record champions have issued an unusually clear statement and firmly denied the reports.

In recent days, Turkish media had reported on Galatasaray’s alleged interest in Jamal Musiala. Some reports even mentioned a loan deal lasting until the summer of 2027. Now, the top Istanbul club has officially denied the speculation—using unusually strong language in the process.

In a statement, Galatasaray explained: “Due to the deliberate dissemination of false and misleading reports about our club in recent days, we feel compelled to issue the following statement to inform the public.”

The club was particularly clear regarding the Bayern star: “Claims that professional soccer player Jamal Musiala is set to transfer to Galatasaray are completely unfounded.”

Galatasaray makes serious accusations

However, the Turkish champions did not stop at a simple denial. Rather, Galatasaray accused the authors of the reports of deliberately spreading misinformation.

“The continued dissemination of these claims, even though they have been clearly refuted as false, is an attempt to mislead the public and create a negative image aimed at discrediting our club’s transfer activities.”

The club also emphasized that the same individuals and platforms had already spread similar rumors last season. “It is also noteworthy that the individuals and platforms responsible for these speculations were behind similar false claims last season as well.”

In conclusion, Galatasaray clarified: “Galatasaray Sports Club conducts its transfer dealings with the utmost care, professionalism, and confidentiality, always in the best interests of the club. False reports and speculative claims will not alter our club’s principles, objectives, or approach to transfer dealings.”

And further: “We politely ask the public and the wonderful Galatasaray fans to rely exclusively on official statements from our club and not to give credence to false reports, speculative claims, or the individuals and platforms that continue to spread them.”

This puts the matter to rest once and for all. Reports from Germany had already made it clear that neither FC Bayern nor Musiala himself had any interest in a loan move to Turkey. Now Galatasaray has also officially and unequivocally put an end to the rumors.
