During the last transfer window, Victor Nelsson of Galatasaray was reportedly a target for Tottenham Hotspur.

 

The defender was reportedly unhappy with his team’s choice to turn down the north London club’s offer and wanted to move there.

When we fast-forward to October, Haber7 gives us a background on the efforts Tottenham made to recruit the 24-year-old.

According to reports, Sevilla and Spurs both made offers of around €20 million, but the Turkish champions refused them on the demand of manager Okan Buruk.

The international from Denmark has made 13 appearances this season, five of which have come in Champions League qualifications, and in the last three games, he has been relegated to the role of a substitute.

Last week, the center defender stated his dissatisfaction with his current circumstances and insisted that he would not sign a new contract with Galatasaray.

According to Haber7, Buruk has expressed “great regret” about not allowing Nelsson to sign with Tottenham or Sevilla during the summer transfer window. The manager made this admission to those close to him.

The Ange Postecoglou team is still interested in signing the Dane, according to a report from Akşam on September 30. For the defender’s sale in the next windows, Buruk ought to provide the go-ahead.
