Galatasaray set to offer Liverpool defender Glen Johnson €2.2m deal [divider]
Galatasaray are preparing an offer for Liverpool defender Glen Johnson according to Eurosport TR.
The Lions are reported to be considering making an offer worth €2.5 million per-season for the England international.
Johnson can enter direct talks with other clubs with his contract set to run out at the end of the season and he has confirmed interest from foreign clubs.
“No talks. At this point I have no idea [where I will be next season]. I haven’t thought about it,” Johson was quoted as saying in the Guardian.
“There are talks. It would be great for the kids to go abroad but I am not thinking about yet as we have two months left here and I’ll think about it after that. We will have to wait and see.”
