Galatasaray are in talks with Liverpool midfielder Lucas Leiva.

Lucas, 30, will be out of contract with Liverpool at the end of the season.

Turkish media sources say manager Igor Tudor is said to have given Galatasaray's board the green light to try and sign Lucas.

Initial talks with his agent reportedly went very well and the two parties are apparently set to meet up again soon, says the Daily Star.

Lucas has made 27 appearances across all competitions for the Reds this season.
