Galatasaray manager Okan Buruk has identified Atalanta's Éderson as his primary midfield target. The Italian club has indicated that transfer discussions can only begin after January 28, as they are not prepared to sell a regular starter before their Champions League matches are complete. It is reported that Buruk has told Galatasaray management that Éderson is his primary choice and to wait for him if necessary, with the club also considering Raphael Onyedika as an alternative.
