Milan Škriniar is reported to be on the verge of leaving Paris Saint-Germain. He was previously close to joining Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia last summer, but the deal fell through. Although long linked with Juventus, with whom he reportedly had an agreement, Galatasaray is now said to be close to finalizing the transfer. Turkish media have announced an agreement after Galatasaray’s coach, Okan Buruk, and sporting director Abdullah Kavukcu travelled to Milan to complete the transaction.
Milan Skriniar is set to fly to Istanbul to join Galatasaray as a new player. Tuttosport reported that the Slovak defender will be on a dry loan to the Lions until the season’s end. The Turkish club has agreed to cover his salary of approximately 4.5 million euros until the conclusion of the agreement. It was noted that Mauro Icardi influenced Skriniar’s decision, given their past association as teammates at Inter. Skriniar sought information from Icardi about Galatasaray and the Turkish league. The proposal from Galatasaray persuaded the 29-year-old to depart from PSG and relocate to Istanbul.
