Doubt it personally. Maybe a bit of wishful thinking on their part.

According to AG he isn't first choice in any of the positions he can play, so a loan makes sense, but both club and player would prefer a UK loan.

It is so much easier for a player to keep in a side if they have a second position they can play to a good level. The work he has done to convert to a RB should pay off in the long term.

Thought there was an earlier report suggesting he and his family didn't fancy a move to Turkey?

Your surprised that a footballer wants to play football? Probably surprising that Harry Kane wants to win trophies too

Or possibly surprised that a footballer wants to play football at a destination like Turkey...what do you reckon?

Loan would be great but would be surprised if he went to Turkey. Would be a hell of a learning/cultural experience for a young player but riskier than sending him to, say, the Championship (higher chance of home sickness, inability to adapt, etc).

No offence but are you new to football transfers?

Not every player signs for teams 'just because they are playing football'.

Well in his case he's has said many times that he wants to play football not sit on the bench

Right but Turkey isn't normally a place you go to to play football as a youngster, you might as well play in League 1 or the SPL.

Just merely playing football is one thing but the end goal is to improve and play in an environment which will assist in his development and help him grow as a person, how many players do you know who have let alone gone to Turkey from the Prem on loan to improve, playing in that league is normally an end station for players so I don't see how it benefits him.

Would be a weird move for him. Caulker has done pretty well over there the past couple seasons but you would have thought someone like Newcastle would have taken Tanganga on loan, or one of the promoted teams even.
