Galatasaray is looking to strengthen its forward line due to Mauro Icardi's failure to deliver the expected performance and Victor Osimhen's upcoming participation in the Africa Cup of Nations. In this regard, the club has turned its attention to Milan's young star Santiago Gimenez, with the assistance of agent George Gardi, who is influential in the Italian football market.

HIS SITUATION AT MILAN

Milan signed Santiago Gimenez for 30.2 million Euros during the mid-season transfer window last year. However, the Mexican player has fallen short of expectations and failed to show the desired performance. Galatasaray plans to bring the 24-year-old forward into its squad on loan in January.

EXPECTATION FOR RETURN TO THE PITCH

Santiago Gimenez, who is currently sidelined with an ankle injury, is expected to return to the pitch next week. Having played in a total of 11 matches in the league and cup this season, the player has contributed 1 goal and 2 assists while remaining on the field for 768 minutes.
