Liverpool and Manchester United will face a fight with Galatasaray for the signing of Porto striker Jackson Martinez.
The forward is now regarded as one of the world's best strikers, alongside Atletico Madrid's Falcao and Edinson Cavani of Napoli.
And that has sparked the interest of free-spending Galatasaray, who have recently added superstars Didier Drogba and Wesley Sneijder to their squad.
Generous tax tariffs for big-earners in Turkey have opened the door for the Turkish champions to invest heavily in high-profile stars.
And, according to Portuguese newspaper O Jogo, Porto can now prepare themselves for a huge bid for their coveted frontman.
Gala are reportedly ready to open the bidding at £37.5m but with interest rife among Europe's elite clubs, as well as the big spending Russian clubs like Anzhi, that figure could still rise.
The Colombian has scored 23 goals in 25 league appearances this season after joining from Mexican club Jaguares last summer.
