gbandit Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 I’d play him on the right which is where he mainly played in the Euros. Was an absolutely massive handful for everyone who was up against him. He’d bully people in the premier league, especially alongside Jow Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

English teams compete with each other for the 24-year-old striker. There was a surprise development, especially while the Liverpool allegations were circulating. Newcastle's sports director Paul Mitchell came to Istanbul yesterday... today he will watch the Galatasaray-Besiktaş Super Cup final. It seems likely that he will make an offer for Barış Alper Yılmaz. Galatasaray's national star Barış Alper Yılmaz is a traveller to England... The current Newcastle United sports director Paul Mitchell, one of the teams that wanted him in April, came to Istanbul... it was claimed that the name that left AS Monaco at that time would first be the sports director of Fenerbahçe and then Beşiktaş. In fact, after the words of President Hasan Arat, it was taken very seriously. However, Mitchell became the sports director of Newcastle United from the Premier League teams in early July. The explosion experienced by Barış Alper Yılmaz in Euro 2024. Going to England for vacation. Here, allegations that he was in talks with teams such as Liverpool, Arsenal and Aston Villa overlapped.

Tonalis Bookie Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 mentioned this in another thread but he reminds me a lot of Bellamy, he's a pest who is always nipping at your heels with great pace. if he is even 75% close to the impact Bellamy had, he would be brilliant.

There was even more further down in the article. And the Tuncay Maldan guy is his agent: IN ISTANBUL FOR BARIŞ ALPER Newcastle's sporting director arrived in Istanbul yesterday... he is expected to watch the Super Cup final between Galatasaray and Beşiktaş today. Afterwards, he may make an offer to Galatasaray management for Barış Alper. TUNCAY MALDAN'S GUEST All that is known is that Mitchell was hosted by Tuncay Maldan in Istanbul... and even that a pre-booking was made at the hotel he was staying at as "Maldan's guest". After the Super Cup final, many things seem to fall into place Edited August 3 by KaKa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine we would already have enough information on him though. Mitchell is more of the final boss deal maker too, so I'd imagine it would be more to explore doing a deal.

Bunk Moreland Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 1 minute ago, KaKa said: Mitchell is more of the final boss deal maker too, so I'd imagine it would be more to explore doing a deal. Aye, doubt he's going there just to casually scout him then making a snap decision about whether to buy him based on his performance in that game. Much more likely that if this is all true MItchell's mind was already made up and he's just at the game because it happens to be being played while he's there.

LFEE Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 3-0 Besiktas after a debatable (technically) pen. Gala a headless mess. Baris does have a lot of Bellamy vibes. Probably stronger than him. Doesn’t over complicate things it seems. Definitely pacy and aggressive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 (edited) Gala are having a shocker here. Faffing about at the back and got a red. Down three and wouldn't even get the ball forward quickly. Edited August 3 by KaKa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 IF Mitchell is even actually there you would think it's more than just to scout. If he has tracked him at Monaco then he knows what to expect. Maybe we are buying a club in Turkey lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
