Ghanaian defender Derrick Köhn has expressed his excitement at signing for Turkish Super League giants, Galatasaray, citing the rich history of the club as a major factor in his decision.
Köhn, 25, recently inked a two-year deal with Galatasaray, with an option to extend until 2026. The left back has been in fine form for Hannover 96, notching eight goals and 12 assists in 53 matches since his move from Willem II in 2022.
Speaking on Galatasaray’s official website, Köhn expressed his eagerness to don the club’s iconic yellow and red jersey, stating, “Signing for such a big club is a very big and special thing for me. I am looking forward to stepping onto the field, meeting our fans, and giving everything for the club as soon as possible.”
He went on to emphasize the significance of the move, saying, “I consulted with my friends, acquaintances, and family about the transfer. Everyone knows how big of a club Galatasaray is. I know it too. Being here is prideful. Wearing this jersey is very valuable to me.”
