Transfer News: Galatasaray sign Nigerian striker Henry Onyekuru from Everton

Galatasaray have confirmed the signing of Henry Onyekuru on a season-long loan from Everton.

The Nigerian joined the Toffees ahead of the 2017-18 season, but was immediately loaned out to Anderlecht. He scored nine goals in 19 appearances for the Belgian side before a knee injury in January cut his campaign short.

The 21-year-old was impressive in the first half of the campaign in Belgium, bagging 10 goals in his first 27 appearances and also impressing in the Champions League, which could have been a key factor in the forward potentially being able to play in the Premier League.
