Sporx reports that Turkish giants Galatasaray have proposed an offer for want-away Nadiem Amiri. The offer amounts to a loan fee of €1m and a purchase option worth €5m. According to their information, there is 'no significant conflict' between the clubs, indicating the talks are progressing smoothly. However according to Sky's Marlon Irlbacher, Amiri is only considering clubs with a strong sporting perspective and Galatasaray, whilst usually participants in UEFA competitions, only finished 13th last season and therefore should not be interesting for him.

A couple of days ago, Iker Bravo was sensationally linked with a move back to Spain after just one season in black and red. The story has developed somewhat since. According to Sport Bild, the 17-year-old struggled in his first year to integrate to life in Germany, not only because of a lack of German and English, but also due to his undisciplined, aggressive attitude, which has broke down his relationship with his host family and also seen him wreck a hotel room and get into fights with teammates. In another article, Bild reveals that rather than a 2 year deal, a one year loan is on the cards and that Leverkusen would still very much like to keep the highly rated Spaniard.
