Hahahaha dude has spent more time in the hospital than on the pitch….Hahaha
Galatesary should have known that this injury prone issues is one among many other reason elite clubs couldn’t sign him Hahaha
Most of his injuries are always from playing fr his national team where he over works himself playing with lazy, clueless, selfish and old players parading themselves as under 30s.
True talk.
