Zaniolo scored five goals in 10 appearances for Galatasaray in the league since joining from AS Roma in February.

The Lions ended up lifting the Super Lig title and will compete in the Champions League next term as a result.

Galatasaray are said to be willing to sell Zaniolo for €35 million, but they are not interested in any offers below that figure.

Club director Erden Timur has apparently stated that the club have “alternative names” in case Zaniolo decides to leave this summer.

It remains to be seen whether any of the interested clubs will be able to meet Galatasaray’s asking price for Zaniolo.

However, the Italian midfielder is a talented player who would be a valuable addition to any squad.
