Buruk drops three for Genclerbirligi
Okan Buruk is making four changes and benching three players for the trip to Genclerbirligi on Saturday (9). The 1–4 home defeat to Barcelona on Tuesday is the reason. Kickoff is 15:00 CEST (4).
Özbek: Sane goes nowhere
President Dursun Özbek killed the Leroy Sane transfer talk. "Hiçbir yere gidemez," he said, which means he cannot go anywhere (8) (10). Sane has no goal or assist in nine matches this season and has taken heavy criticism from fans, but the club has decided he stays (10).
Leao took the heat
Rafael Leao assisted Galatasaray's only goal against Barcelona and still got picked apart (7). The numbers: 18 turnovers and 59% pass accuracy (7).
A winter striker to cover Osimhen
Galatasaray have started work on a mid-season striker signing to back up Victor Osimhen (1). The poor Champions League start is behind the move.
What is next
Genclerbirligi away on Saturday at 15:00 CEST, then Lille away in the Champions League on Wednesday, October 21 at 18:45 CEST. Fenerbahce at home on Monday, October 26 at 19:30 CET.
