Galatasaray are getting serious about landing Inter Milan goalkeeper Yann Sommer, with an official offer reportedly in the pipeline.

Per recent reports from Turkey via FCInter1908, the reigning Super Lig holders have lined up an opening bid for the veteran star.

What started as a rumor has the potential to become something quite concrete rather soon.

Indeed, the Turks have prepared their first proposal for Yann Sommer as they aim to sign a top-class goalkeeper.

In addition to their well-documented interest in Hakan Calhanoglu, Galatasaray could pull off another raid on Inter.

With Sommer’s contract at San Siro running out in 2026, the Turks see the Swiss ace as a potential low-cost solution.

However, Sommer isn’t Galatasaray’s first choice to strengthen the goalkeeping position.

Indeed, they’ve identified Chelsea’s Djordje Petrovic as their primary target.

After a superb loan spell at Strasbourg, Petrovic could leave Stamford Bridge permanently this summer.

Yet, he would command a much higher price tag than Sommer.

Therefore, the Turkish giants are keeping both avenues open.
