Galo has completed the signing of center-back Léo Duarte to strengthen the black-and-white squad for the remainder of the season. The 29-year-old defender joins the Club after ending his contract with İstanbul Başakşehir of Turkey and has signed a deal through 2030.

After his spell in Italian football, Léo Duarte built a solid career in Turkish football. Initially loaned to İstanbul Başakşehir and later signed permanently, the defender became one of the team’s key figures, making more than 200 appearances and also playing a leadership role within the squad.
