Why Rafa could find signing Turan a little ‘Arda’ to resist
The relationship between Fenerbahce and Galatasaray is widely recognised as one of the fiercest rivalries in World football. A simply audacious attempt by Fenerbahce chairman, Aziz Yildirim, to lure Galatasaray golden boy, Arda Turan, fuelled months of debate among pundits and fans.
Having already signed Emre Belozoglu, previously seen as a product of the Galatasaray youth system, it may be that this was simply an attempt by Yildirim to rub salt in to an already open wound at the Ali Sami Yen. Galatasaray responded by giving Arda the captains arm band and, under the guidance of Frank Rijkaard, he has flourished once again in the Red and Yellow of ‘CimBom’.
As the rumours once again begin to circulate about Arda’s future, I ask the question, what is all the fuss about Arda Turan?
Arda is widely regarded as the hottest product of the Galatasaray youth system for the past decade. Technically excellent with both feet, strong in possession and the ability to play on either flank, or as a second striker, has helped his rapid progression at both club and international level.
Turan was one of the stars of Euro 2008. His last gasp-winner against Switzerland sent the hosts crashing out and was followed by a goal against Croatia to help Turkey into the knock-out stages.
Liverpool fans will undoubtedly have been scouring the internet for videos of their latest transfer target and few will have been disappointed in watching a player whose mazy runs and numerous assists have put him on Europe’s radar once again.
With reported interest from Manchester City, claims that he wishes to play for a club who play in red will have been music to Liverpool fans ears, and with Liverpool desperately in need of some added flair, he could be an ideal signing.
Should he continue to produce the quality that has provided 15 assists and 2 goals this season, it would be ‘Ard’ to see him resisting the calls of Europe for much longer.

hehe, Arda IS a Liverpool-fan, so that`s why he likes the red shirts, just google it. I think it says something about it on wikipedia.
What are They (liverpool) waiting for. I heard the rumour started from last year till today. Still nothing in progress. Liverpool surely miss one more star…then regrect again….
They did try to involve Babel in a swap deal in this transfer window but i dont think Babel was keen on the move. Also Arda has said that he still has goals to achieve at Gala but will want a move to Europe in the future. Lets see what happens hey!
Liverpool wont buy him because we have absolutly zero money. why do you think we have just watched gudjohnsson move to spurs (who already have 4 quality strikers) when we are crying out for cover for torres. we have no chance at getting 4th imo.
Liverpool have some money not all lot but some, i feel the board have made there mind up about Rafa and he is gone in the summer. There not going to sanction any transfers now and if they do they will be loan deals or cheap deals on average players. The bulk of what kitty we do have will be spent in the summer by a new manager with different ideas and new targets.

I don’t see Gala sellin him for a shite bid from Rafa. He’s worth at least £25m and we don’t have it. We do have a squad full of @#~except Torres and Gerrard and we sure could use another star in our team.

Arsa has said before he wants to play for Liverpool because he lifes the fans and culture and of course the Jerseys. Barca only sign Spainish youngsters and won’t want Arda with Pedro playing so well. I will welcome him at LFC with open arms, top class player with the flair we need and owners have said there will be big signings in the summer, just wait and see!!!
