Galatasaray enters negotiation phase for Ahmetcan Kaplan transfer

Continuing its squad planning ahead of the new season, Galatasaray has turned its attention to Ahmetcan Kaplan to increase its domestic player alternatives in the defensive line.

It is stated that the yellow-red management has intensified its contacts for the 23-year-old national center-back, who plays for Ajax, following an evaluation of names previously on their transfer list.

According to a report by Fanatik, Ahmetcan Kaplan has responded positively to the offer from Galatasaray. The player's readiness to wear the yellow-red jersey is considered one of the factors strengthening Galatasaray's hand in the transfer process.

It was reported that the Dutch club expects a transfer fee in the range of 6-7 million euros for the young defender, who has entered the final year of his contract with Ajax. It was noted that Galatasaray is continuing its negotiations to lower this figure.

The consistent performance of Ahmetcan Kaplan, who played on loan at NEC Nijmegen last season, has been one of the prominent factors for Galatasaray's domestic center-back rotation. Whether the transfer will be completed will depend on the outcome of the transfer fee negotiations between the clubs.
