Roma have confirmed the sale of Nicolò Zaniolo to Galatasaray.
The deal is reportedly worth an initial €16.5m, with an extra €13m in performance-related add-ons.
Zaniolo had been excluded from the Roma squad after a public falling out with boss José Mourinho, and will now earn a reported €3.5m per year with the Turkish side.
The contract is thought to include a 20% sell-on clause that would be due to Roma and a €35m release clause should another club come knocking for his services.
The 23-year-old has made 94 Serie A appearances since joining the Giallorossi in 2018, but his playing time was curtailed by two long layoffs with ACL injuries sustained in January and September 2020.
Zaniolo has made 11 senior appearances for Italy since making his debut in 2019.
