Galatasaray signs versatile Senegalese defender to boost back line

After clinching the league title, Galatasaray moved to reinforce its defence. The 26‑year‑old Senegalese has spent last season in Europe’s second tier and can play as a centre‑back or left‑back.

The club values his pace, ball control and tactical awareness, aiming to blend these traits into a sturdier back line. His contract runs until 2028, and the youngster is already attracting interest from bigger clubs.
