Galatasaray are expected to officially announce the loan transfer of Everton starlet Henry Onyekuru over the next 48 hours.

A source close to the club revealed to Turkish-Football that the 21-year-old has agreed personal terms with the Istanbul based outfit.

The agreement with Everton will be announced as an official statement on the Istanbul Stock Exchange once all parties have reached a satisfactory conclusion.

The loan move is expected to include an option to extend by an additional season or a buyout clause option.

Galatasaray manager Fatih Terim has already confirmed the transfer will go ahead.

Terim was quoted by Turkish-Football as saying: “We have been keeping tabs on Onyekuru since last season. 

“He scored nine goals in 19 games for Anderlecht and played in the Champions League. 

“He played as a second forward and behind the striker at times last season. 

“I hope our new transfer is a success.

“Everyone will see that the transfer makes financial sense when the details are revealed.”

Onyekuru joined Everton in 2017 but was immediately sent on loan to Anderlecht following his inability to secure a work permit.

The rising star scored 10 goals in 28 appearances before suffering a knee injury which ended his campaign last season.

Galatasaray confirmed yesterday that the Lions want the Nigeria international on a temporary move.
