What we know
Lille are monitoring Galatasaray goalkeeper Jankat Yılmaz, whose listed contract runs to June 2027. On 23 Oct three Turkish outlets – Ajansspor, Mynet.com and Haberaktuel.com – reported that the French club has placed the keeper on its shortlist, with Ajansspor quoting that Lille “added the Turkish keeper to its list”.
Superhaber.com later echoed the story, attributing the information to Ferhat Kızıltaş of Ajansspor, and a separate Superhaber piece claimed the player’s deal expires at season’s end, a detail that clashes with the registered 2027 expiry. The 23 Oct reports constitute the first public stage; none of them mentions a formal offer. Superhaber.com’s follow‑up adds the contract‑expiry claim but still stops short of reporting any bid.
All three 23 Oct sources agree the move is at the interest stage only, with no official approach recorded, per Ajansspor, Mynet.com and Haberaktuel.com.
Key findings
- First report: 23 Oct 2026, mynet.com.
- 5 independent sources behind it (mynet.com, superhaber.com, ajansspor and 2 more); 1 other outlet only repeats earlier reporting.
- 1 post from unidentified accounts, not counted as evidence.
- No Tier 1-2 source stands behind it, so the score is capped at 50.
- Deal stage reached by a counted source: interest.
- No source denies the move.
- Latest evidence: 11 days ago.
