Youssef Chermiti was injured during the match between Hibernian and Rangers and was diagnosed with a torn anterior cruciate ligament. Galatasaray had been tracking the striker and even submitted a €25 million offer. Given this situation, the Turkish club will now have to look for an alternative.
Deniz Gul, of FC Porto, is another player who has already been linked with the Istanbul club. Galatasaray may once again turn to the Turkey international, who is not among Francesco Farioli's main choices. In fact, the Dragons are also looking to sign a reinforcement for that position.
At 22, Deniz Gul is under contract with FC Porto until 2029 and is protected by a release clause set at €50 million. This season, he has made two appearances without scoring. In 2025/26, he totaled 44 matches, seven goals and one assist. The striker joined FC Porto in 2024 from Hammarby in a deal worth €4.5 million.
The player was also part of Turkey’s squad at the 2026 World Cup, but failed to stand out in a tournament in which the Turkish team ended up being one of the biggest disappointments.
