Galatasaray is making strides towards bolstering its squad with the potential transfer of Julian Brandt. The club's management has reportedly met with the player's father and agent, Jurgen Brandt, to discuss the terms of a possible deal. The 30-year-old German midfielder, whose contract with Borussia Dortmund has expired, is a prime candidate to strengthen Galatasaray's midfield for the upcoming Champions League campaign.

Brandt has been a prolific player for Borussia Dortmund, scoring 57 goals and providing 70 assists in 307 matches. This versatility has also made him an attractive target for Italian and Spanish clubs, who have shown interest in the player. However, Galatasaray's pursuit of Brandt remains strong, with the club aiming to secure a dynamic midfielder to support their Champions League ambitions.

The club's technical director, Okan Buruk, has initiated the transfer operation following his recent report. Galatasaray is looking to build a more competitive squad, particularly for the Champions League, and Julian Brandt could be a crucial addition to their midfield.

The transfer's details are expected to become clearer in the coming days, with Galatasaray keen on bringing the experienced Brandt to the club.
