According to Bild, Borussia Mönchengladbach is interested in acquiring Taylan Bulut, but financial constraints mean they must first raise funds to facilitate the transfer. It is suggested that Ko Itakura could be the first player sold to help with this financial requirement. The transfer discussions are further complicated by the lapse of Bulut's release clause, which had been set at 6 million euros for German clubs, leaving the transfer fee open to negotiation. It is anticipated that the price will be approximately 5 million euros. Moreover, RB Leipzig is also reportedly interested in Bulut, though they are postponing any actions until they have resolved their coaching situation.
