Galatasaray Set to Bid ₦54bn for Brazilian Sensation Kaua Elias

After clinching their 26th Turkish Super Lig crown, Galatasaray has turned its sights to the upcoming transfer window. The Istanbul giants have identified 20-year-old Brazilian forward Kaua Elias of Shakhtar Donetsk as a prime target. His fine form in Ukraine has convinced the club’s board to pursue him for the 2026-27 campaign. Shakhtar, who paid €17 million for Elias mid-season, now values him at €35 million (around ₦54 billion). They have already rebuffed a €22 million bid from Flamengo and are holding out for a bigger offer. Talk in Istanbul centres on where Elias would fit. He could slot in for outgoing Mauro Icardi or provide fresh competition for Victor Osimhen, whom the club insists is not on the market.
