DONE DEAL: Galatasaray complete signing of Roma attacker Nicolo Zaniolo

Galatasaray have completed the signing of AS Roma attacker Nicolo Zaniolo in a permanent deal.

Zaniolo completed his medical on Wednesday morning and inked terms in the afternoon.

Zaniolo has joined Galatasaray on a four-and-a-half-year deal, reported to be worth around €3.5m net per season plus add-ons.

His contract also contains a release clause, set at around €35m, and Roma have a future resale clause set at 15%, which would earn them €5.25m should the release clause be triggered.

Galatasaray will pay Roma €16.5m plus €13m in add-ons.

Roma announced last night: “AS Roma can confirm that an agreement has been reached with Galatasaray for Nicolo Zaniolo. The forward has completed a move to the Turkish club on a permanent basis.

“Zaniolo joined the Giallorossi in the summer of 2018, going on to make 128 appearances for the club in all competitions – scoring 24 goals."
