Report: Galatasaray want Southampton to lower asking price for Mario Lemina

Galatasaray a▨re keen to make Mario Lemina’s loan move from Southampton into a permanent one.

🅘, Galatasaray will ask Southampton to lower their asking price. There is a set fee in his loan deal but Galatasaray want to pay less than 🙈that.

The current situation would allow Galatasaray to automatically💞 make Lemina’s deal permanent if they meet his buy-out clause of just over £13.5m. But the Turkish giants would rather pay less.

After missing out on a move to an English club, Lemina had to look at European teams.🐎 Galatasa🦩ray eventually won the race for Lemina and he has impressed the fans so far.

This season, the 26-year-old has played 10 matches. He has had some injury concerns, causing him to miss a number of games. But he is now back and ready to kick on. Galatasaray could be his permanent home if a fee can be agreဣed.

TBR’s view

Lemina’s future at Southampton looks all but over. But this shouldn’t stop the Saints trying to squeeze a bigger transfer fee out of ♋theಞ midfielder.

There is bound to be a number of🗹 clubs chasing Lemina, especially if he stays fit and impresses for Galatasaray. If the Turkish champions don’t want to pay the money, another club might pounce.
