Man United given major transfer boost as Portuguese ace talks with Turkish giants break down

Galatasaray star Bruma is heading towards a summer exit after talks over a contract extension broke down yet again.

The Lions have been holding on and off talks with Bruma over a new deal.

Portuguese ace Bruma has just over 12 months remaining on his contract.

Galatasaray want Bruma to sign a four-year extension with a release clause that matches their £21 million valuation.

“Galatasaray offered a four-year contract extension but wanted a £21 million [€25m] release clause,” Balde was quoted as saying by Haberturk.

“It proved to be a sticking point and we had to leave the negotiation table.”

Manchester United have been closely linked with a move for Bruma and sent chief Eastern European scout Krsto Kilibarda to monitor his game against Gaziantepspor last week.

The Portuguese winger has made no secret of his desire to play for Manchester United in the past.

Former Galatasaray sporting director Levent Nazifoglu recently revealed that Bruma wants to play for United.

“He has said he wants to play for Barcelona and Real Madrid,” Nazifoglu was quoted as saying by Turkish-Football.

“Bruma aims to play for Manchester United but if he wants to, he must change certain things.”
