Deal done! Benfica forward, 76 games, heads to Galatasaray | OneFootball

It’s a done deal. Jéssica Silva is on her way to Galatasaray, and is expected to be officially announced and presented this Monday in Turkey, one day after confirming her departure from Al Hilal. The Portugal international is now preparing for another move in her career, this time to Turkish football.

The Istanbul club has already started building anticipation for the arrival of the former Benfica forward on social media, through an enigmatic post featuring the silhouette of a female footballer. Although there is no direct identification, the signing in question is indeed the Portuguese player.

The message attached to the post also reinforces that idea, with Galatasaray writing: “Talent says it all!”, in a clear hint about the imminent signing. The official announcement is expected in the coming hours, with the presentation set to take place shortly.

At 31, she is now saying goodbye to Al Hilal after a short spell in Saudi Arabia. This will be another chapter in a career marked by several international experiences, following spells in Sweden, Spain, France, and the United States.

In Portuguese football, the forward stood out while playing for several clubs, including União Ferreirense, Clube de Albergaria, Braga, and Benfica, where she played between 2021 and 2024 (76 matches). With 135 caps for Portugal, she continues to establish herself as one of the leading figures in women’s football. She recently spoke about her time at the Luz.
