This is the original Turkish article that detailed Mitchell flying in yesterday and being hosted by Tuncay Maldan, who is his agent.

Tuncay Maldan's agency and players

This seems key but (apols for ropey translation):

Barış Alper Yılmaz, one of the architects of Galatasaray's last two championships, is leaving the yellow-red team. 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.

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

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. The one player from the Euros who I wanted

Just booked in exactly the type of fashion Bellamy would 🤣

Is Mitchell scouting this Turkish guy or is he going/been to do a deal?

 

 

 

 

We're not 100% certain yet.

 

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.

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.

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.

Yes like I said much stronger. Very stocky.

 

Gala down to ten men after more calamitous defending. 
 

Our man not seen much of the ball since moving to the right permanently.
