Galatasary Fight To Keep Target



Manchester United and Liverpool target Burak Yilmaz could leave Galatasaray this summer, according to the club's manager Fatih Terim.

The powerful striker, who has been linked to United, has been in sensational form since moving to the Turkish giants last summer, netting 26 goals in 31 appearances.

The Champions League joint top scorer has attracted interest from across Europe and a £10 million offer is reportedly enough to sign him.

Speaking to The Observer, Boss Terim said: "It's not going to be easy to keep him.

"He has targets but it will be his decision. Being wanted is a good thing, but we are fond of him and believe he will do great things for us in the future."

The 59-year-old drew comparisons between Yilmaz and Andriy Shevchenko, who he managed during his time at AC Milan in 2001.

Terim said: "Andriy Shevchenko was the same.

"He is always thinking about scoring one more goal. Loving football is very important. I think he is going to get better and better."

The 27-year-old striker has hit eight goals in the Champions League and 18 in the Turkish league.

Besides Manchester United, he is also reportedly being watched by fellow Premier League clubs Arsenal and Liverpool.
