According to Fanatik, Newcastle United's scout team will watch Barış Alper Yılmaz live at Anfield during the Champions League round of 16 match against Liverpool. The club has been in contact with the player's manager for some time and will follow him until the end of the season. There is information that Newcastle will make an offer to Galatasaray at the end of the season.

Newcastle has sent scouts to watch Galatasaray star Baris Alper Yilmaz ahead of the summer, indicating potential interest in acquiring the player.

Dean Jones from GIVEMESPORT indicated in a podcast that Newcastle United is interested in acquiring Barış Alper Yılmaz as a right-wing attacker. Although not a high-profile player, he matches the criteria Newcastle is seeking. Barış Alper Yılmaz has made 24 appearances for the Turkey National Team, showcasing his versatility at the international level. He is regarded as a viable option if Newcastle is unable to secure Mbeumo or Semenyo. Jones mentioned during the podcast that he had discussions with someone about potential exciting transfers at Newcastle, and Barış Alper Yılmaz was identified as a player worth considering for the club. While he might not stir much enthusiasm among fans, his transfer is not as simple as it might appear.
