Swansea striker Bafetimbi Gomis has completed his move to Galatasaray, the Premier League club announced on Wednesday.

Galatasaray had said the previous night that official talks had began with Swansea to sign Gomis. The 12-times capped France forward then posted a picture of himself on Instagram on an Istanbul-bound plane on Wednesday.

He was later pictured on the official Galatasaray website draped in a club scarf, and and the deal was quickly concluded.

Swansea are reportedly expected to receive around £2.5 million for the 31-year-old, who joined them on a free transfer from Lyon in 2014.
