As well as Casemiro: Turkish outfit hope to complete imminent acquisition of £200k p/w United flop

Turkish clubs have another nine days to bolster their squads for the season ahead, and it appears as though two maligned Manchester United figures are of interest to two Super Lig outfits.

The Old Trafford faithful are likely aware at this stage that Galatasaray are said to be considering a move for Casemiro. Numerous reputable outlets have relayed the information, with the primary stumbling block believed to be the midfielder’s £350,000-a-week wages. If he were to depart on loan, they would be expected to cover a portion of his salary.

Elsewhere, Fotomac claims that Fenerbache have now shortlisted Antony with hopes of sealing a temporary deal by the end of Wednesday.

Jose Mourinho has been prompted to pursue attacking options before the September 13 deadline after arch-rivals Galatasaray welcomed prolific frontman Victor Osimhen to Rams Park.

Antony, despite costing United £86 million in 2022, no longer occupies a starting role under Erik ten Hag and has instead seen his place on the wing fulfilled by younger counterparts Amad Diallo and Alejandro Garnacho.

The 24-year-old, who pockets £200,000 each week, notched just one Premier League goal in 29 appearances last season and, as a result, has featured only once in 2024/2025 thus far in a one-minute cameo vs Brighton and Hove Albion. He was an unused substitute for the Fulham and Liverpool fixtures.
