Galatasaray sporting director Cenk Ergün reveals Lazio made an offer for striker Burak Yilmaz.
The Biancocelesti were in a desperate hunt for a striker this summer, with Filip Djordjevic and Miroslav Klose both injured.
Alessandro Matri eventually arrived on loan from Milan, but it appears Turkish international Yilmaz was another option.
“Yilmaz is a great striker, we received a lot of offers for him,” Ergün told Sky at the Wyscout Forum.

“Yilmaz is a great striker, we received a lot of offers for him,” Ergün told Sky at the Wyscout Forum.
“We even got one from Lazio. If we get new offers, we could sit down and talk about it, it depends what he wants.”
Yilmaz joined Gala in 2012, and has since gone on to score 61 goals in 98 Turkish Super Lig games.
