Turkish Super Lig giants Galatasaray have loaned out Nigerian winger Jesse Sekidika to rivals Konyaspor for the remainder of the season, reports Sports247.
Sekidika moved to Galatasaray from Eskişehirspor in January last year and struggled to make an impact with the Istanbul club.
The 24-year-old had made just six league appearances for Gala in the first half of the season. The arrival of Onyekuru meant chances would be harder to come by for him and a loan deal has been sanctioned.
“Thank you for giving me this opportunity. Much obliged. I know the size of Konyaspor and what kind of a community it is. I’ll do my best here.” Sekidika said in his first interview with the club.
“Thank you for everything. From the first moment I came to the club, I came across many beautiful things. They made a very nice welcome, everyone was very friendly. I even called my wife, we talked to her. When we came to the stadium, Konyaspor Club gave a gift that I will never forget.
“My wife was also very happy with this situation. I will definitely pay you for these during the season. I hope we will all be happy together.”
Konyaspor are 16th in the Super Lig table with 23 points from 20 games.
