Netherlands' Wesley Sneijder owed unpaid wages by Galatasaray

The 30-year-old joined Gala from Serie A club Inter in January 2013 and is serving as vice-captain under new coach Cesare Prandelli.

But the former Real Madrid and Ajax man is apparently not being paid for his contribution to the Turkish Super Lig team and " according to reports in the Netherlands " has the right to a free transfer.

However, Sneijder, who is said to be owed around 1million, does not appear in any hurry to leave Gala and has insisted he is focusing on Netherlands' upcoming Euro 2016 qualifiers with Kazakhstan and Iceland.

"It's true that I am still owed money," Sneijder said in quotes reported by De Telegraaf. "Galatasaray is working to bring the finances in order.

"But I focus on the Oranje [national team]. My management talks with the club about a solution."

Sneijder has scored 22 goals in 66 appearances for Gala, winning the Super Lig, Turkish Cup and Super Cup.

His current contract expires in June 2016.
