Turkish giants Galatasaray are reportedly looking to sign Nigerian striker Gift Orban as a replacement for injured Marco Icardi.
Orban has struggled to make any kind of impact at Lyon since joining in January 2024, and the French club are willing to cut their losses.
Lyon’s financial issues mean the club must part ways with several players, and Orban’s poor performances have made him an easy option.
According to A Spor, Galatasaray are looking to replace Icardi with Super Eagles forward Gift Orban in January.
Icardi tore his right ACL during Galatasaray’s match against Tottenham, and his departure has placed Victor Osimhen as the sole reliable goalscorer.
Orban’s arrival should ease the goalscoring burden on Osimhen, and offer a new lease of life to the 22-year-old Orban.
