Bowyer did confirm a club had put a bid in for Macauley Bonne and it was turned down. 'That happened and we turned it down. We’ve gone back to them and said he’s not for sale.'
Louis Mendez reports: 'There was a second interested party, from Turkey. This was former Galatasaray board member @uralakuzum. His representative @tufekcci has confirmed to me they’ve pulled out of the race.'
'We made an offer and then we waited.... 2-3 days ago, @MarianMihail19 said Panorama Magic didn't want to continue in negotiations with us, they will continue with another company and we wished them the best of luck.'
