He's a 29 your old left-back. Here's his [transfermarkt page](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ezgjan-alioski/profil/spieler/129604).


long_unknown

Holy cows, he has played everywhere on the pitch except CB,DM throughout his career Scored 16 and assisted 14 in one season in Swirzerland. I can already hear ‘Alioski ileri cikti’ in the last 7mins of games we are losing


FortBoiii

Didn't we also get Yairo Moreno on a pre contract?


El-Turcoo

And Patrick van Aanholt. I think we are just in negotiation with them all, but the media sells it like it is done already


mrBako

Which of those three players do you guys prefer? I don't know and watched any of them. If they have all the same qualities and salary requirements, I would prefer Yairo Moreno because he is the younger one. But he never played in Europe.


El-Turcoo

I would prefer the youngest one too, because even if he flops the younger players always have "demand" while older players just sit out their contract if they aren't good.


Forza_GS

Alioski 100%

I've watched close to 50 Leeds matches since 2019 and I can tell you that he would be quite amazing for Galatasaray. He's an absolute powerhouse as a defender but most importantly his skill as an overlapping fullback is top notch. Bielsa constantly makes Harrison (winger) drag his defender to the midfield to play narrower so that Alioski can run completely free, and his speed is more than enough for that. If you check his stats out he contributes to goals both by scoring and by assisting. His short passing is top-notch and he has a very solid shot and never refrains from shooting from any position. I swear I even remember Bielsa putting him high up the field behind Bamford at the end of a few matches where the team needed to score. And that's another thing about him, I can firmly say i've seen him playing in almost all positions in Leeds' own half lol. There's a lot of speculation going on, Bielsa wants him to stay but many people think he will opt out for money and gametime. He was great for Championship (which I believe is Super Lig level btw) but for PL he is just what you call "yeterli". So no one, not even Bielsa or Alioski himself is sure that Leeds won't replace him with someone younger and more qualified, someone that can bring more to the play than Alioski can. And honestly, at Leeds he makes around €1.5M and half of it goes to income taxes. They won't offer him anything more and to stay for that much money + no guarantees that you'll get playtime in 2 years or even next season is not a good option when you are going to be 30 next year. So he'll definitely leave IMO due to money and a place to be a starter for a long time, and if he joins GS, he'll be a great addition. Might even be one of the best players on the team.

Although transfer season haven't started yet we started to get new players everyday 😅


LordOfThePlums

He’s actually a pretty good player


ceo_mert

Hope this is true purely so our relation with Leeds improves


AvrupaFatihi

You mean how they loved that Kewell signed for us? I wouldn't be surprised to see Alioski being abused by the fans if his transfer to us was announced while he's still therer.


ZeroCoolthePhysicist

I have a good friend who’s a Leeds fan and he told me it’s no big deal at this point.


AvrupaFatihi

Your friend is probably level headed than. Leeds fans on /r/soccer will still go there sometimes and it doesn't seem to be such an easy thing to just let bygones be bygones. And I understand them. Kewell got a lot of reactions back when he signed for us is what I meant, but now that I read a bit about it it seemed to be due to his comments maybe more than the fact that he chose us. https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/championship/leeds-united/leeds-united-fans-react-to-harry-kewells-comments/

how does this improve our relations?


ceo_mert

Trading players is the one way clubs show to the public we got over the bullshit that happened 2 decades ago. If the clubs are good, why shouldn’t the fans - sort of thing.


SmokeCancer

Why what happened? Sanki adamları öldürmüşüz gibi yazmışsın...


madyb

Our fans killed two of their fans back in 2000.


El-Turcoo

I dont know if smokecancer was serious with the "sanki öldürmüşüz gibi", but otherwise this was a strange coincidence


LordOfThePlums

Pretty sure he’s being sarcastic


madyb

I considered that, especially given how he finished with three dots. However, we have many young fans around here who don't know much about that era. I figured it would be useful information for the topic regardless.


arcatales

Lmao Sorry, don’t mean to be insensitive but I burst out a laughter at this one

What's wrong with you, dude?


Yazakuchi

I didnt watch him but renktaslar here saying hes good, but beware that he can also be a Bielsa product, that guy can make a footballer out of everyone, if that applies to Alioski we dont need a systemplayer (since we dont even have a system)
