Turkish giants Galatasaray have made an agreement to sign Paris Saint-Germain’s unused Argentinean striker Mauro Icardi on a season-long loan without an option to buy. The former Inter attacker will complete an impressive list of recent signings.French goalkeeper Leo Dubois from Lyon, midfielder Sergio Oliveira from Porto, Lucas Torreira from Arsenal, Dries Mertens on a free transfer from Napoli, Mustafa Mohamed from Zamalek, Haris Seferovic from Benfica… We might have missed someone because it’s been that busy of a transfer window on the Bosphorus.🛩 🛩 🛩 … ⏳ 🔥 pic.twitter.com/tONflyYMUq— Galatasaray SK (@GalatasaraySK) September 7, 2022 The deal is reportedly close to completion with the final details yet to be sorted, the Turkish club have booked a flight for the Icardi, who is set to leave Milan tonight to travel to Turkey. The Argentine international has 38 goals in 92 appearances for the Parisian club, but it’s been a long time since he was considered a first-team regular. His story is one of wasted potential because he used to be considered the striker with the most potential in the game. He was supposed to be what Erling Haaland is now.##NAJAVA_MECA_6625089##But he didn’t feature at all for PSG this season and has fallen further down the pecking order at the Parc des Princes due to the arrival of Hugo Ekitike. The Argentine recently posted a picture of himself in Miami, making it clear that coach Christophe Galtier doesn’t care one bit for the Argentine.The Turkish club is also close to signing Serbian-born winger Milot Rashica from Norwich city – also on loan. The 26-year-old has scored just one goal since joining the Canaries from Werder Bremen in a $12.1 million. He’ll try to rekindle his form for the red-yellows in the Turkish Super Lig.
