Elias Jelert’s form is starting to rise at Galatasaray. The Danish player is expected to get more playing time in the coming weeks.
Galatasaray has managed to get value from the players who joined the team during the summer transfer window. Only Elias Jelert struggled to find much playing time due to adaptation issues.
Jelert was transferred from Copenhagen for 9 million euros at the beginning of the season and became the center of criticism. The 21-year-old player, acquired for investment purposes, failed to make the expected impact in the early weeks.
Recently, Jelert came on as a substitute in the second half of the derby against Besiktas. The performance of the Danish player, who impressed with his play, has pleased the coaching staff. It has been learned that Elias Jelert will have more opportunities in the upcoming weeks.
Ismail Jakobs’ injury continues at Galatasaray. Due to the lack of an alternative for the Senegalese player, Jelert is expected to cover both full-back positions.
Elias Jelert has played in 12 matches across all competitions for Galatasaray, starting in the starting eleven for 3 of these matches, but he has not contributed to the score.
