ISTANBUL (AP) — Portugal winger Rafael Leão is on his way to Turkey where he is expected to join Galatasaray.
On Saturday, the Turkish club posted a short video on X of the 27-year-old player sitting on a plane and sending a message to the club’s fans.
Galatasaray said it’s started discussions for his transfer from AC Milan.
Leão, who played at the World Cup this year, was also reportedly courted by Aston Villa. He is set to sign a four-year contract with Galatasaray, according to media reports.
Milan signed Leão from French club Lille in 2019.
