Göztepe's management is targeting Iury Castilho from the Brazilian Serie B team Coritiba for a mid-season transfer. It is reported that manager Stanimir Stoilov is seeking to increase the team's attacking diversity. The 30-year-old Brazilian forward's contract expires next month. Castilho can operate as both a central forward and a winger. The Izmir team has reportedly held preliminary talks with the player's agent, and the transfer could be finalized in early January if financial conditions are met. If an agreement for Castilho is not reached, the club has other potential targets in the South American market. The player joined Coritiba in June 2025. His current market value is €850k, according to Transfermarkt.
