Burak Yilmaz nears Lazio switch

Turkish Sporx TV has suggested that Lazio have reached an agreement to sign forward Burak Yilmaz from Galatasaray.

The Biancocelesti have stepped up their chase for a new striker following an embarrassing 4-0 defeat to Juventus in Italian Super Cup.

And while PSV Eindhoven’s Tim Matavz remains on their hit-list, it looks as though Lazio officials are turning their attention to Burak Yilmaz.

Sporx TV has even moved to suggest that Galatasaray have accepted a €15 million proposal for their prized asset, with the player offered €2.5 million yearly wage.

Burak Yilmaz has been linked with a number of high-profile sides over the last few months, but Galatasaray are reportedly not too keen on seeing their star player leave this summer.

The 28-year-old has been scoring goals for fun ever since he joined Cimbom from Trabzonspor, netting a total of 33 goals in 40 competitive appearances for the Turkish giants.
