Galatasaray will get the sum of €736,193 (seven hundred and thirty-six thousand one hundred ninety-three euros) from the Federation of International Football Association owing to the injury suffered by Christian Luyindama two years ago, the Super Lig side has announced.
Luyindama, 27, was injured while on international duty for DR Congo in an Africa Cup of Nations qualification fixture against Gambia on November 18, 2019.
In the four-goal thriller that ended 2-2 at Bakau’s Independence Stadium, the centre-back suffered a cruciate ligament tear that ruled him out of the 2019-20 season – and that stimulated the Yellow-Reds to demand compensation from Fifa.
