Pogoń Szczecin is considering a transfer for Metehan Baltacı, a 23-year-old defender from Galatasaray SK, who has been suspended for nine months due to a betting scandal. Baltacı has not played in official matches since September 26, and his situation has garnered interest in Poland. The player admitted to betting on matches but denied involvement in match-fixing. His case has resonated widely in Turkey, where he was regarded as a talented defender. Pogoń Szczecin is looking for a new player for the center-back position as Danijel Loncar's contract is expiring and will not be extended. Metehan Baltacı, a Galatasaray academy graduate, has made 22 appearances for the first team but has only played twice in the last season. Previously, he gained experience on loan at Eyupspor and Iskenderunspor. The right-footed defender stands 189 cm tall and has been called up to Turkey's youth national teams. Okan Ozkan, responsible for scouting at Pogoń, is leading negotiations with the player.
