Kerem Demirbay does what 3 other players could not

Galatasaray's Turkish-German player Kerem Demirbay, who was transferred from Bayer Leverkusen at the beginning of the season for 3.7 million Euros, has been dazzling with his performance in recent weeks.

Head coach Okan Buruk used Sergio Oliveira, Kaan Ayhan, and Ndombele interchangeably alongside Torreira during the first half of the season. Unable to get the efficiency he expected from these 3 names, Buruk later gave a chance to Kerem Demirbay.

According to the report in Sabah, Demirbay managed to become one of Okan Buruk's indispensable players in a short time.

Displaying a performance of 6 goals and 5 assists during this period where he became a regular starter, the experienced player solved Galatasaray's midfield problem.

Effective in using set pieces and making a difference with his long-range shots and pass accuracy, Kerem Demirbay became the hero of the match against Çaykur Rizespor at Aslantepe, adding a penalty kick to the two excellent goals he scored to complete a hat-trick.

Kerem Demirbay, who has also appeared twice for the German National Team, is reminiscent of Selçuk İnan, whose number 8 jersey he wears.
