LA Galaxy midfielder Nigel de Jong is set to sign for Süper Lig giants Galatasaray, according to various reports in Dutch and Turkish media.
The 31-year-old has been at the LA Galaxy for less than a year but it seems like his time with the five-time MLS Cup champions is coming to an end.
Galatasaray were reportedly in pursuit of Newcastle midfielder Cheick Tioté, but after a failed medical with the Istanbul-based club, the team has opted to pursue LA Galaxy midfielder Nigel de Jong instead. As a result, a rumored agreement has been made and De Jong has traveled to Istanbul to complete the deal.
