Galatasaray in for Ivanovic: what Benfica stand to pocket | OneFootball

Franjo Ivanovic has once again come onto Galatasaray’s radar. According to various Turkish media outlets, the Turkish champions are getting ready to make a move for the Croatian striker and have already defined the structure of the first offer they plan to present to Benfica.

According to the same reports, the Istanbul club wants to secure the player on a loan deal with an option to buy set at €12 million, with a further €5 million potentially added through performance-related bonuses.

However, the offer is unlikely to convince the structure led by Rui Costa. Besides Benfica having invested €22.8 million in the signing of Ivanovic in the last summer transfer window, the Eagles’ priority is a permanent transfer or, alternatively, a loan that includes a mandatory purchase clause.

Galatasaray are not, in fact, the only club keeping a close eye on the Croatian international’s situation. Hull City and Como are also monitoring developments in the case, while other European clubs have already made exploratory contacts to understand the conditions demanded by Benfica.

Last season, Franjo Ivanovic in all competitions, numbers that continue to attract the interest of several clubs in the European market.
