Benfica striker on the way out, all but at Galatasaray | OneFootball

Galatasaray remain very active in the transfer market and, after officially announcing the arrival of Jéssica Silva, the Turkish club do not want to slow the pace and are already targeting another signing with Benfica links, in what would be another attacking option.

According to information reported by journalist Can Bedel, the Istanbul side are in talks to secure the signing of Cristina Martín-Prieto, a 33-year-old Spanish forward who finished last season in the service of Benfica.

The Spain international has experience in European football and has now emerged as one of the options on the table to strengthen Galatasaray’s attack, as they look to increase the squad’s competitiveness for next season.

After the arrival of Jéssica Silva, the Turkish club’s project appears to be taking on a new dimension, with the board looking at experienced players who have already proven themselves on the biggest stages as a way of raising the team’s level.

Negotiations are still ongoing and no agreement has been reached, but the interest is concrete and the Benfica forward is firmly on the club’s radar, which remains active in building its squad for the new season. The signing could also happen because Martín-Prieto was not a regular option for Ivan Baptista. In 2025/2026, the forward scored only five goals in 28 matches.
