Everton winger Henry Onyekuru has reached an agreement in principle with Galatasaray to extend his contract by an additional season according to Fanatik editor Yakup Cinar.

Per the source, Onyekuru’s agent William is keen on his client extending his loan stay at Galatasaray.

He enjoyed an impressive season at the Lions helping the Yellow-Reds win the league and cup double.

Onyekuru scored 16 goals and provided six assists in 44 appearances for the Lions in all competitions last season.

The Nigeria international would play Champions League football for the second season running at Galatasaray if the move were to go ahead.

The 22-year-old has yet to play for Everton despite joining from Anderlecht in 2017.

Onyekuru was loaned back to Anderlecht the following season and spent last term on a temporary move at Galatasaray.

The winger has been unable to get a work permit to play in the Premier League which is why the Toffees have loaned him out.
