According to a report by the Italian press outlet La Gazzetta dello Sport, Mauro Icardi and Lucas Torreira contacted their former teammate Skriniar and succeeded in persuading him to join the transfer.
It has been learned that the Slovak center-back will join Galatasaray for the second half of the season on a six-month loan, with all his expenses covered by the yellow-red club. Furthermore, the 29-year-old footballer, who has appeared in only 5 matches for Paris Saint-Germain this season, is expected to receive a salary of 5 million euros from Galatasaray.
The Galatasaray management is continuing its efforts to finalize the transfer officially. If Skriniar joins the team, it is anticipated that the defense will gain significant strength.
