Turkish club “Trabzonspor” have turned their attention to the English Premier League ahead of the winter transfer window.
Fanat.az reports that the Black Sea club are reportedly interested in signing “Brentford”’s 22-year-old Ukrainian midfielder Egor Yarmolyuk.
The news was reported by “Turkish Football”.
According to the source, “Trabzonspor” are looking for a central midfielder who can contribute both defensively and in attack. Yarmolyuk has been added to the club’s shortlist because of these qualities.
The Ukrainian has made eight Premier League appearances for “Brentford” this season, scoring one goal and providing one assist. His need for regular playing time is cited as one of the factors fuelling the Turkish club’s interest.
One notable aspect of the potential transfer is that Yarmolyuk is represented by the same agency as “Trabzonspor” defender Arseniy Batagov. Reports suggest this connection could facilitate any negotiations.
However, there is a significant financial obstacle to the transfer. Yarmolyuk’s market value is estimated at around €32 million. In addition, his contract with “Brentford” runs until the summer of 2031.
English clubs “Newcastle United” and “Everton” are also reportedly interested in the Ukrainian.
“Trabzonspor” are currently said to be exploring the possibility of signing the player. However, no formal agreement has been reached between the parties.
