Fenerbahçe had a brilliant transfer window so far, there were interesting signings at Beşiktaş, but Galatasaray are not resting either. Just a few days after buying Mauro Icardi’s contract from Paris Saint-Germain and thus keeping the team’s biggest star, the Turkish champions are on the threshold of a sensational signing for Sergio Ramos.According to information from Istanbul, supported by transfer guru Fabrizio Romano, the Spanish veteran has agreed to join the Lions. The contract would be valid for one year and thus the 37-year-old stopper would perhaps be the most famous name that would arrive in the Super League this summer. The same source states that Juan Mata, another Spanish veteran, an acquaintance of Ramos’ from the time they played together for the national team, played a crucial role in the realization of the deal. Interestingly, although his contract has expired and he is looking for a new club, Mata presented Sergio with a project that aims not only to defend the title, but also to leave as deep a mark as possible in Europe, regardless of the fact that Galata’s Champions League qualification did not start very convincingly.##NAJAVA_MECA_7403347##They played only 2-2 away to Zalgiris, and after the match in Lithuania, coach Okan Buruk criticized Victor Nelson the most, judging that his mistakes led to two conceded goals, which many interpret as the club’s intention to get rid of the Dane and thus make room for bringing in Sergio Ramos.Although he has been linked with Saudi clubs, it was even mentioned that he could join Boca Juniors, and David Beckham’s hope to convince him to move to Miami (already signed Lionel Messi, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba) has been simmering for a long time, Ramos is still without a club. All chance is not for long, because he allegedly promised to move to Galatasaray.Sergio Ramos to Galatasaray, here we go! Full agreement in place on a one year contract, valid until 2024. 🚨🟡🔴 Juan Mata, key factor – he called Ramos to explain the project. All the documents being prepared. #galatasaray pic.twitter.com/WYjwtxsE4z— Tefik Fikret (@TefikFikret_) August 1, 2023 Although in his late playing years, Sergio Ramos can still play football at the highest level. Last season he was on the field 45 times in PSG jersey, 42 of those as a starter, and the experience gained primarily in Real Madrid, embodied through four Champions League trophies, should be valuable to the Lions from Istanbul.So far, Galatasaray have brought in Wilfried Zaha as a free agent after the end of his cooperation with Crystal Palace, Cedric Bakambu from Al Nasr (United Arab Emirates) and Angelino on loan from Leipzig.
