​Everton table £35m offer for Baris Alper YilmazEverton have submitted a £35 million bid for Galatasaray forward Baris Alper Yilmaz, with club officials arriving in Istanbul to conduct negotiations.The Toffees have tabled a lucrative offer in an ambitious attempt to secure the signature of the 26-year-old Turkish international.Yilmaz has emerged as one of the most coveted attackers in Turkish football following a standout Super Lig campaign.Capable of operating across the entire frontline—on either wing, as a central striker, or even as an energetic wing-back—the Turkish star registered 12 goals and 14 assists in 49 appearances across all competitions last season.His explosive acceleration, direct dribbling, and relentless work rate make him an ideal tactical fit for the high-intensity demands of Premier League football.Everton are prioritising attacking reinforcements to boost their final-third output, and with Iliman Ndiaye facing an uncertain future given significant interest from Al-Hilal, bringing in a wide player capable of making an immediate impact is seen as crucial.The arrival of Everton delegates in Istanbul underscores their determination to outpace other European suitors and wrap up negotiations swiftly.Dubbed as ‘elusive’ by Virgil van Dijk while on international duty, Yilmaz featured for Turkey at the World Cup and recorded a goal and an assist in their only win against the United States.Securing the attacker will require navigating firm demands from the Turkish champions. Galatasaray have previously held out for valuations approaching €50 million (£43m), with the player under contract until 2028.Alongside Yilmaz, Everton have also been linked with a move for Arsenal’s Ethan Nwaneri, and they remain keen to sign Jack Grealish permanently following the expiration of his loan deal.
