TURKISH Super Lig side
Galatasaray have announced the signing of Nigeria international, Henry Onyekuru
on loan from Everton.
The Yellow-Reds while
confirming the deal worth 800,000 euros through the club’s official Twitter handle, also uploaded
pictures of the first training session of the Super Eagles forward with his new
teammates at the club's training camp in Switzerland on Thursday.
Galatasaray announced the deal on its official
website. Onyekuru has already joined Galatasaray's training camp in
Switzerland.
“✒️
#Galatasaray are glad to make the signing of Henry Onyekuru official! Nigerian 🇳🇬
21-year old winger is joining us from @Everton on loan. Welcome, @henryconyekuru!,”
the Turkish side said via @Galatasaray.
The 21-year-old joined the
English Premier League outfit in the summer of 2017 and was immediately sent on
loan to Anderlecht following his inability to secure a work permit.
The former Eupen player, who scored ten goals in 28 appearances before suffering a knee injury which ended
his campaign last season, express gratitude for the opportunity to feature for the biggest team in Turkey.
"I’m so excited to start my
new journey with the biggest team in Turkey! I will do all I can to help the
team achieve more success. I am grateful for this opportunity", he said via his verified Twitter account, @henryconyekuru.
