It was reported that Galatasaray showed interest in Johan Manzambi in the winter. According to 'Sky', there are currently no concrete talks with other clubs. A decision regarding a possible transfer is expected only after the World Cup. SC Freiburg would only be willing to sell Johan Manzambi for a fee that exceeds the club's record sum of €30 million. FC Brentford paid this sum for Kevin Schade in summer 2023. Johan Manzambi is under contract until 2030 and does not have a release clause.

Galatasaray has made Freiburg's 20-year-old Swiss midfielder Johan Manzambi a primary transfer target. Manzambi has also attracted interest from other clubs, including PSG, and Galatasaray is reportedly speeding up the process to make official contact this week. While Freiburg expects a high transfer fee, Galatasaray is considering a loan with a purchase option or installments, and it is said the player is receptive to a move.
