Rafael Leão has expressed excitement about a potential partnership with Victor Osimhen at Galatasaray after completing his move from AC Milan to the Turkish champions, PUNCH Sports Extra reports.
The Portugal international arrived in Istanbul on Saturday to a rapturous reception from thousands of Galatasaray supporters at Atatürk Airport, following his €45m move from the Serie A giants.
The 27-year-old forward is expected to form a formidable attacking partnership with Osimhen and Leroy Sane, with the two players already sharing a close friendship.
Both players featured in the Italian Footballers’ Association Awards in 2023, when Osimhen was crowned Player of The Year after scoring 26 goals and leading Napoli to their first Serie A title in 33 years.
Leão was also honored alongside Osimhen and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia in the Serie A Team of the Year at the Gran Galà del Calcio following his stellar campaign with AC Milan.
