Göztepe's move for Juan: Permanent transfer secured

Göztepe, which has made a strong start to the season in the Süper Lig, has taken a significant step in the transfer market. The club has officially acquired the permanent rights to Brazilian forward Juan Silva, who had been on the squad on loan since last season. It was announced that a new contract has been signed with Juan, who was previously on loan from the English club Southampton—which is owned by Sport Republic, the company that manages Göztepe's football operations—running until 2029. The 23-year-old striker, who appeared in 26 Süper Lig matches for Göztepe last season, recorded 7 goals and 3 assists. This season, he has featured in 2 matches so far.

Sporting Director Ivan Mance made the following statements regarding Juan joining Göztepe permanently: "We are delighted that Juan has agreed to join us permanently. He has decided to build his career through the Göztepe project. He was an important player for us last season, and we believe we can continue to contribute to his development in the coming seasons. We believe this transfer is a smart investment for Göztepe. Juan is now our player, and he will continue to share his energy with our fans."
