Juventus are thought to want £75.7m for the 19-year-old Turkish winger.

Bruno Fernandes has said he would always choose Cristiano Ronaldo to take a decisive penalty.
He explained: “If you probably ask anyone in the world, who will you choose to take your penalty at the 90th minute and to save your life, most of the people would say Cristiano.
“They know, in that kind of moment, he is decisive. And it works.
“We’re talking about one of the best penalty-takers in the world.
Learning from the best
Bruno Fernandes has revealed he discusses penalty taking with Cristiano Ronaldo.
Fernandes said: “When we go to the national team, I’m always having shots with Cristiano to understand the way he does it. We speak a lot.
“He sometimes asks me what I think about the goalkeeper and everything.
“Even Cristiano, if you see him now is different now from the past.
“If I see the penalty from Cristiano against Chelsea in the final of the Champions League [in 2008] and the ones that he takes after that, he is changing his way of kicking and now he’s changing again.
“So you are always having to adapt yourself to the game because things change quickly. People get to know you better and better.”
Ron and Only
Diogo Dalot has said it is an honour to call Cristiano Ronaldo a team-mate.
The pair played together during his one-and-a-half year second spell at Old Trafford and with the Portuguese national side.
Dalot said: “It’s hard to find new adjectives to describe Cristiano.
“For me, and I believe for my team-mates as well, it’s a privilege and an honour to have him here in the national team, and to be able to share moments with him.
“To absorb some of his experience, the extraordinary career he has built.
“There’s always that feeling of wanting to see him win major competitions with Portugal.
“The passion and love he has shown for our country cannot be questioned.”
Academy at centre of age scandal
Man Utd have allegedly been caught up in an age fraud scandal over academy youngsters.
The Telegraph claim that some of the players in the club’s academy may have actually been adults.
United’s rivals City are also embroiled in the situation and three of the six players said to be involved have gone on to play for England youth teams.
Hojlund to leave?
Man Utd’s interest in Victor Osmihen good spell the end for Rasmus Hojlund at Old Trafford.
Journalist Alex Crook said on talkSPORT earlier today: “I think he’ll move on at the end of the season. There’s interest from Italy.
“Ineos and Ruben Amorim are not necessarily convinced that he’s the man to lead the line moving forward.
“There’s interest from the likes of Napoli, it wouldn’t surprise me if Osimhen comes in the opposite direction.”
