Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen will arrive this evening at the General Aviation Terminal of Istanbul Atatürk Airport.
Galatasaray had reached an agreement with both the player and his club after long negotiations.
The only step remaining for Osimhen’s transfer to Galatasaray is the official signing. For this reason, the player will arrive in Istanbul today and is scheduled to undergo medical examinations tomorrow.
The signing ceremony is expected to take place at an event held before Galatasaray’s friendly match against Lazio on Saturday.
The transfer of a player like Osimhen to the Süper Lig at this stage of his career and for a record fee could be the first step in a transformation that may profoundly impact the future of the league.
With the signings of Osimhen and Sané, Galatasaray has made it clear that they are determined to build a competitive team for the Champions League.
