Just yesterday we reported that SK Sturm Graz has the two Turkish players Ismail Yüksek and Burak Kapacek on the list. The denial came from Sturm sports director Andreas Schicker today.

The 35-year-old immediately made it clear: “The claims that we are interested in Burak Kapacak and İsmail Yüksek are completely ridiculous, we had no contact.”

This once again confirmed the assumptions that Turkish media should not always be taken seriously. The legionnaire situation at Sturm Graz – as already described yesterday – would not have fitted into the picture either. With Tomi Horvat, the Grazers have already signed a legionnaire, with Anderson Niangbo another is returning to his club KAA Gent, which means that Sturm now has seven legionnaires with regular place ambitions in the squad.

There is another denial from Salzburg: Benjamin Sesko said in the Interview with the “Krone”that he feels very comfortable in Salzburg and that advertising for AC Milan is not an issue for him at the moment: “I’ll definitely stay with Red Bull Salzburg for the whole season!” – so it’s also likely that the Slovenian team striker will play a major role in the coming season WILL play for the Red Bulls.

However, it is conceivable that Sesko’s advisor Elvis Basanovic has already gotten a kind of commitment from AC Milan. He said to “Salzburg24”: “I spoke to Paolo Maldini about many things. Of course, the name Benjamin Sesko also catches the eye. In the next five to six years, Sesko will be one of the best strikers in Europe. He currently has everything he needs for his development in Salzburg.” – Genoa and Manchester United are therefore likely to become a little less likely as possible transfer destinations for Sesko.
