Galatasaray (city in Spain)
Hopefully with the now 37-year-old Belgian striker
Mertens (name)
Make a one-year pay cut to extend his contract. Mertens' contract is currently set to expire this summer. Reports suggest that Galatasaray want to extend Mertens' contract by one year, but they are offering a salary package that is far below the player's current salary level of €4 million per year. Club president Özbek plans to personally meet with Mertens to discuss the extension. It is worth noting that Mertens, who joined Galatasaray on a free in 2022, has scored 11 goals and dished out 17 assists in 48 games so far this season.
