Tottenham set for transfer talks with agent of €30m-rated Arsenal target

Tottenham are all set to hold talks with the agent of Arsenal attacking target Barış Alper Yılmaz.

Despite having extended the loan spell of Timo Werner, there is still a lot of work that Tottenham need to put in to strengthen their attack ahead of next season. While all the talk is about signing a world-class number nine to lead the attack, they are also looking to add more quality on the flanks, particularly on the right flank.

Galatasaray’s attacking sensation Barış Alper Yılmaz’s impressive rise over the past 12 months have caught the attention of Tottenham and according to a report from Sabah, the North London club are all set to hold talks with the Turkiye international’s agent in London over a potential transfer.

While he has been a part of the Turkish club’s first team since joining them in the summer of 2021, he had a breakthrough campaign last season as he scored seven goals and even bagged 12 assists in his 55 appearances. It helped him cement his place in Turkiye’s squad for Euro 2024 where he managed to impress one and all with his abilities on and off the ball.

Galatasaray consider him to be an integral part of their first-team setup moving forward and he has three years left on his deal with them. However, the report suggests that their management would be willing to sanction his departure if they receive an offer in excess of €30 million.

Tottenham have already taken the first steps towards signing him as they are all set to hold talks with his representatives in London but they are not the only club interested as Yilmaz’s agent will also hold talks with Arsenal.

Arsenal are looking to add depth to their attack as well. Mikel Arteta has not been able to rotate Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli often. The arrival of Yilmaz will allow the Gunners to shuffle things around in the attack.
