The 29-year-old, who has played 31 times for his country since his debut against Greece in 2019, has signed a deal that will keep him at Galatasaray until the end of the 2029-30 season.

Super Lig champions Galatasaray also signed Ivory Coast defender Wilfried Singo from AS Monaco for 30.8 million euros and striker Victor Osimhen from Napoli during the transfer window.
