Galatasaray Eye Donnarumma After Ederson Talks Stall
Galatasaray Eye Donnarumma After Ederson Talks Stall
Galatasaray've turned their sights to Italy's Gianluigi Donnarumma with negotiations for Man City's Ederson proving difficult according to Spanish outlet AS.
Ter Stegen Blow Ends Initial Plan
The Turkish champions initially targeted Marc Andre ter Stegen hoping to lure him after he reportedly fell out of favor under new Barcelona coach Hansi Flick.
However a back injury has ruled out the German goalkeeper forcing Galatasaray to halt discussions.
Ederson Deal Hits Financial Roadblock
Galatasaray reached personal agreement with Ederson offering the Brazilian shot stopper net salary of 6 million euro per year plus bonuses. But Man City are demanding 10 million euro for the transfer, a fee the Turkish side's hesitant to match.
Donnarumma Now on the Radar
With Ederson's move stalling Gianluigi Donnarumma's emerged as viable Plan B. The PSG goalkeeper's future remains uncertain as his contract expires next summer and no renewal has been agreed.
Galatasaray's head of transfers Abdullah Kavukcu confirmed to AS:
"We have list of targets. Donnarumma's among them but we must evaluate the financial conditions carefully"
Meanwhile head coach Okan Buruk added:
"Donnarumma's exceptional keepe of course I'd want him. Ederson's also great option but nothing is finalized"

Revealed – Dispute At The Heart Of Transfer Soap Opera Between Ademola Lookman, Inter Milan & Atalanta
A dispute over an alleged promise to Ademola Lookman by Atalanta is at the heart of the transfer soap opera between the Nigerian, his current club, and Inter Milan. Italian outlet FCInterNews report that the player believes he has an explicit promise that Atalanta would be amenable in negotiations for his sale this summer. In another bombshell in what has become a full-blown transfer soap opera, Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman made a public statement in which he handed in a transfer request. The 27-year-old explicitly accused Atalanta of breaking a promise to him. This confirms weeks of rumours that Lookman believes La Dea have promised a sale this summer. This after they refused to allow him to join Paris Saint-Germain last summer. The Promise At The Heart Of Lookman Atalanta Inter Soap Opera BERGAMO, ITALY – MAY 12: Ademola Lookman of. Atalanta warms up prior to th.\e. Serie A match between Atalanta and AS Roma at Gewiss Stadium on May 12, 2025 in Bergamo, Italy. (Photo by) Inter Milan reportedly received word from Lookman's entourage that a €40 million would be enough to sign the former RB Leipzig forward. In effect, the player's representatives conveyed that this is what Atalanta had told them. Informally, at least. Therefore, Inter believed that all the parties were on the same page. The Nerazzurri believed that €40 million would be in the ballpark of an offer that Atalanta would accept. But that has not proven to be the case. Atalanta have not just rejected that offer. They've also turned down a bid worth €45 million including add-ons. Hence Lookman's anger with Atalanta over this alleged broken promise in his social media post.

UK lenders face $12 bn plus compensation bill despite court ruling: watchdog
British finance firms behind high interest car loans could have to pay out more than nine billion pounds ($12 billion) in compensation despite the country's highest court ruling that most of the controversial deals were lawful, a financial watchdog said Sunday. The Supreme Court on Friday partially overturned judgments that the loans were unlawful, giving relief to banks which had been bracing for compensation claims from millions of car-buyers. It did, however, uphold one of the three cases, which allows the claimant to seek compensation. And in a similar but separate probe, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) said that the cost of any redress scheme relating to discretionary commission arrangements for car loans would likely be higher than £9 billion. "While there are plausible scenarios which underpin estimates of a total cost as high as £18 billion, we do not consider those scenarios to be the most likely and analyst estimates in the midpoint of this range are more plausible," the FCA said in a statement. The FCA estimates that most individuals will probably receive less than £950 in compensation. The court ruling had given the FCA "clarity... because we have been looking at what is unfair and, prior to this judgment, there were different interpretations of the law coming from different courts," it said. "It is clear that some firms have broken the law and our rules. It's fair for their customers to be compensated," said Nikhil Rathi, chief executive of the FCA. The Supreme Court decision mostly overturned Court of Appeal rulings last year that it was unlawful for car dealers to receive a commission on loans without sufficiently informing borrowers. In some cases, the loans -- available from 2007 -- allowed car dealers to offer higher interest rates in return for a bigger commission from banks. The ruling means that dealers have some leeway when arranging loans, without requiring explicit consent from borrowers for terms that may benefit lenders. The case that was upheld involved Marcus Johnson, who in 2017 bought a Suzuki Swift from a car dealer in Cardiff for £6,500 including loan costs -- unaware that interest on the loan amount would fund a commission of more than £1,600. When the Court of Appeal ruled in favour of Johnson, ordering FirstRand Bank, a South African based lender, to refund the commission plus interest, it sparked panic across the finance sector. That ruling was upheld by the top court due to the high level of commission Johnson was charged and the complexity of the contract setting out the fee, which limits the scope of other compensation claims. HSBC bank analysts had suggested before the trial that the total cost to the banking sector could have reached £44 billion. jwp/tw/gv Error while retrieving data Sign in to access your portfolio Error while retrieving data Error while retrieving data Error while retrieving data Error while retrieving data

Singapore's GIC to take 25% stake in Spanish broadband venture, FT reports
(Reuters) -Singapore's sovereign wealth fund GIC is set to take a 25% stake in a fibre optic broadband venture between MasOrange and Vodafone Spain, the Financial Times reported on Monday, citing people familiar with the matter. GIC's investment in the company will be announced as soon as Monday, the report said, adding that its stake would be worth about 1.4 billion euros ($1.6 billion). The deal comes after Zegona Communications unit Vodafone Spain agreed in January to create the new fibre network company in Spain with MasOrange, with London-listed Zegona expected to hold 10% of the venture. The parties at the time of the announcement of the deal were also looking for an investor for the new venture who was expected to hold 40% of the business. Reuters could not immediately verify the FT report. GIC, Vodafone Spain, Zegona and MasOrange did not immediately respond to Reuters' requests for comment. Zegona acquired Vodafone Spain in a 5 billion euro deal last year, as part of Vodafone Group's exit from its Spanish operations.
