Galatasaray have reportedly set their sights on signing Malang Sarr from Chelsea if they fail to lure Sergio Ramos. The Frenchman is currently out injured and has not trained all summer.
As per a report by Forza Cimbom, Sarr is one of the players Galatasary are looking at this summer. The Turkish club want to add a center back to their squad and see the Frenchman as an option.
However, their main plan remains to lure Sergio Ramos to the club. The Real Madrid legend is still a free agent after leaving PSG at the end of last season.
The Spaniard is yet to agree a deal with the Super Lig side and is keeping his options open. He was linked with Inter Miami and Saudi Arabian side, but has not agreed terms with any side.
Sarr has been at Chelsea since leaving Nice, but has not managed to cement his place in the starting XI. He was loaned out to AS Monaco last season, where he got injured towards the end of the season and has been on the sidelines since.
Mauricio Pochettino was recently asked about the future of the French defender in a post-match press conference last month. The Chelsea manager seemed confused at the mention of the defender and did not seem to recognize Sarr's name.
