Ilkay Gündogan among Galatasaray trio ‘to be offloaded’ in winter window | OneFootball

Ilkay Gündogan is among a Galatasaray trio who could be moved on in the winter window, Sözcu reports. The midfielder has barely featured this season.

Gündogan has played only 11 minutes so far, ahead of Sunday’s Süper Lig match against Kocaelispor at 7pm. He came off the bench in the opening league draw with Corum FK, 2-2, then added six minutes in the 3-1 defeat to Sporting Lisbon.

That limited involvement has prompted sharp criticism. A pundit mocked his pace and some supporters on social media urged him to go.

The reported trio also includes Kaan Ayhan and Wilfried Singo. Ayhan, 31, has seen one minute of action and was not registered for the Champions League, while Singo, 25, has totalled 41 minutes.

Separately, Ibrahim Seten said on 343 Digital that the three are effectively on a hit list, and suggested Gündogan could be drawn to MLS or Saudi Arabia.

Gündogan joined his favourite club Galatasaray in autumn 2025. He made 38 appearances last season, scoring 2 goals with 5 assists, but has scarcely featured this term, with the situation said to be tactical and sporting rather than any dispute with Okan Buruk.
