Turkish giants are reportedly set to continue their transfer window spree after signing Victor Osimhen on a season-long loan.

Galatasaray are reportedly keen to continue improving the team after snapping up Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen.

The Turkish side are now gunning for Adrien Rabiot, the talented French midfielder who's currently a free agent after leaving Juventus.

Rabiot to join Osimhen at Galatasaray?

Adrien Rabiot is a target for Galatasaray

Rabiot's been in high demand all summer, with top clubs like Manchester United, Liverpool, and Milan vying for his signature. But despite being out of contract for two months, he's still without a team.

However, the longer he waits, the more his fitness might suffer. So, he must make a move soon.

Interestingly, Rabiot reportedly turned down a €6 million annual contract extension from Juventus earlier this year. Galatasaray's offer is around €5 million a year which might not be enough to seal the deal.

The France international is reportedly holding out for a Premier League move but with the Turkish transfer window closing on September 13, a decision must come soon.

Meanwhile, Victor Osimhen has finally shared his thoughts on his loan move to Galatasaray from Napoli.

Osimhen tweeted the following on his social media account: “Super excited to be part of the Galatasaray family! 🦁 I can’t wait to give my all and make the most of this new journey with such an amazing group and the fans, Ready to create unforgettable memories together! Let’s go! @GalatasaraySK @Galatasaray.”
