Galatasaray eye Lucas Leiva deal

Leiva linked with Turkey move

Galatasaray eye Lucas Leiva deal

18 July 2016 - 17:50

Galatasaray are weighing up a potential bid for Liverpool midfielder Lucas Leiva. The Brazilian was in and out of the first-team under Jurgen Klopp last season.

  • Chelsea to move for former Arsenal goalkeeper?
  • Arsenal handed huge boost ahead of Bournemouth clash



  • Fanatik says the Turkish giants could step their interest in Leiva with top target Lassana Diarra likely to stay put at Marseille for the summer.

    Liverpool are for now reluctant to let go of Leiva, but the prospect of regular playing time at Gala could be too good to refuse for the midfield enforcer.

    Leiva managed to make a total of 40 appearances for the Reds despite being a fringe player at the start of last season.

    Gala could part with a £2.5m sum to sign the Brazil international during the transfer window.

    The 29-year-old has appeared in over 300 games for the Merseyside giants since his move from Gremio in 2007.
