Nigeria defender Bright Osayi-Samuel has been linked with a shock transfer to Galatasaray from bitter city rivals Fenerbahce.
Osayi-Samuel has been locked in contract talks with Fenerbache as his deal will run out next summer.
The 26-year-old defender has asked for a pay rise before he will sign a new four-year contract, while Fenerbache have been stalling.
Fenerbache do not wish for the player to leave on a free transfer next year.
According to Fotomac, Galatasaray now want to sign the Nigeria star as a free agent in June 2025.
This past summer, Galatasaray signed Belgium striker Michy Batsuayi on a free transfer from Fenerbache.
