Arsenal and Tottenham are reportedly among the clubs interested in signing Galatasaray winger Kerem Akturkoglu this summer.
After Spanish giants Atletico Madrid and French dynamos Lyon sent scouts to follow the 23-year-old footballer in matches against Beşiktaş and Barcelona, the two Premier League clubs also entered the race as likely suitors, reported by Turkish language daily Akşam Tuesday, via Daily Sabah. Galatasaray executive Isitan Gun confirmed that much when he admitted that there's clear interest in the winger: "Kerem Akturkoglu had a very good season last year and is one of our best players this season," he said. "It's too early, but two Premier League teams and some La Liga teams have already expressed their interest in Kerem Akturkoglu."
The club is reportedly expecting more than 20 million euros (£16.6m) for the attacker after recently rejecting a 15million euros (£12.5m) bid from Bundesliga outfit Wolfsburg. The winger has been one of the better performers for Galatasaray in what has been an unusually unsuccessful season for them.
