Rangers transfer news as ‘intense pressure’ update emerges in Galatasaray January pursuit of Ridvan Yilmaz

Galatasaray are not placing “intense pressure”

to get a real for Rangers defender Ridvan Yilmaz over the line during the January transfer window,

according to Nevzat Dindar.

Despite persistent hints that the 22-year-old is still a defensive target during the January window,

the journalist—who has over 280,000 followers on X—reported on Monday,

January 22 that the European powerhouses are not making a strong effort to sign the player this month.

Before the Christmas break,

Yilmaz was a reliable player for Philippe Clement’s team,

but he has been linked to a number of moves away from Ibrox. Galatasaray may have only made one approach for the Turkish defender,

according to sources [Mustafa Ozgur Sancar, 22 January].

Dindar stated,

“Galatasaray does not apply intense pressure and pressure for Rıdvan Yılmaz,

” in reference to the possible move. If you ask me, Levent is my favorite.

No intense pressure

Rangers don’t seem very motivated to sell Yilmaz this month,

and Galatasaray don’t seem particularly eager to push for the left-back’s signing,

so it appears like this deal may already be fizzling out.

Given that Borna Barisic’s contract is slated to expire at the end of the current campaign and the Turkish international is now Rangers’ lone option on the left side of defense,

the Light Blues will be reluctant to lose two players so close to one another.

Though there is still more than a week left in the transfer window, there is still plenty of time for things to change.

As the deadline draws closer,

Galatasaray may start to put pressure on Rangers and pay the money needed to get Yilmaz.

It appears that one side will need to renounce their position in order for a deal to be done before the end of the month,

thus this is a deal to watch closely until the very last moments of the window.
