Arda Turan signed a new one-year contract with Istanbul powerhouse Galatasaray on Tuesday, according to the club's official website.
Saying that he is as excited as on his first day with the football club, the Galatasaray captain said: “I am very happy. I want to enjoy every moment of my time at Galatasaray and win successes and trophies."
Turan joined Galatasaray from Spanish giants Barcelona in 2020.
