Gaziantep say no — this time
The offer from Trabzonspor for Luis Pérez was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Gaziantep go back to the board over Hüseyin Türkmen
The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $344.9K — a club that wants Hüseyin Türkmen enough to be asked twice.

Gaziantep make their move for Hüseyin Türkmen
$300.0K on the table at Antalyaspor. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Gaziantep baulk at the price for Muhammed Şengezer
Basaksehir wanted more than $480.0K and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.

Gaziantep bid $110.0K for Hamza Güreler
The offer went to Basaksehir this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

Gaziantep rebuffed over Ertuğrul Çetin
Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Esenler Erokspor have kept their man, and Gaziantep go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Drissa Camara falls out with a teammate over standards
The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Words exchanged at Gaziantep
Nihad Mujakić and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

No hiding place for Trivante Stewart
“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Trivante Stewart, and the manager let it.
In brief
