The management of the Turkish club Galatasaray has begun serious steps to sign one of the Al-Ittihad players as part of their plan to strengthen the team during the upcoming summer transfer window.

Turkish media reports revealed that the club has prioritized striker George Ilinihena after receiving positive recommendations from the scouting team in recent days.

The reports confirmed that negotiations between the concerned parties are proceeding positively, amid optimism within the Turkish club about the possibility of reaching a final agreement in the near future.
