Galatasaray have confirmed talks over a loan move for Everton forward Henry Onyekuru are underway.

Nigeria international Onyekuru joined Everton last summer from Eupen for £7million before immediately being sent out on loan to Anderlecht for the 2017-18 campaign.

The 21-year-old made 19 league appearances and scored nine goals before his season was cut short by a long-term knee injury that ultimately blew his 2018 World Cup chances.

He is back to full fitness now and Galatasaray, who won the Turkish top-flight title last term, have now revealed they are in talks with the Toffees about a season-long loan deal for Onyekuru.

The Turkish club tweeted on Monday: ‘Professional footballer Henry Chukwuemeka Onyekuru’s official transfer to Galatasaray has started with official talks with the player and the club Everton FC.’
