La Liga champions Barcelona could be afforded an incoming boost on the financial front by way of Turkish heavyweights Galatasaray.
That’s according to Sempre Barca, who have revealed fresh interest in Iñaki Peña on Gala’s part.
Shot-stopper Peña is of course widely expected to be on the move before the summer is out, having continued to tumble down the pecking order between the posts in Hansi Flick’s squad following the arrival of Joan García.
To date, reports had largely suggested that a contract termination was the most likely outcome between the parties.
As alluded to above, however, if the latest word stemming from the media this weekend is anything to go by, then Barcelona could yet secure a considerable fee for Peña’s services.
As per a report from the aforementioned Sempre Barca:
‘With a deal for (Manchester City star) Ederson becoming increasingly unlikely, sources have informed Sempre Barca that Galatasaray could shift their focus to a familiar face — Barcelona goalkeeper Iñaki Peña.’
Peña for his part previously spent time on the books at RAMS Park, during a loan spell back in the 2022/23 campaign.
And a reunion could well be on the cards between the parties this summer, amid further claims that Galatasaray are ready to offer up €8-10 million for the 26-year-old.
