Or they just won’t pay their players like most Turkish teams do

Serious question-where do Turkish teams get their money from?. I would have thought the metrics are worse than the championship, or am I wrong?

Sponsors I think. Britt’s new team are about to sign Balotelli, with the sponsor picking up half his salary.

Mega-rich companies and businessmen, many of them with high-end political connections.

But Turkish football is not what it used to be, given the collapse of the Turkish lira and economy. Most of the big clubs have enormous debts. The club that signed Assombalonga is a newcomer, therefore hasn't had the time to make debts.

Don't forget also Turkey is a massive country, it has a bigger population than any European country and the clubs are well supported there.

They just signed Balotelli as well.
