According to Turkish media, Galatasaray's interest in Pape Gueye has recently intensified, and they also report a possible negotiation with Villarreal. However, Villarreal currently deny that such negotiations exist. It is reported that Villarreal do not need to sell and are reluctant to part with one of their most important players. If Galatasaray's interest increases, Villarreal's demands would likely be to refer to Pape Gueye's release clause. The clause was 45 million euros a week ago but has now increased by 10 million to 55 million euros because it is the last week of the transfer window, which strengthens Villarreal's negotiating position.
