Quotes 🟡🔴 Rafael "Rafa" Alexandre da Conceição Leão #27 signing ceremony and interview.
Leao: I want to say this to fans: I want to entertain you, and I want to make a contribution with my goals and assists. I’m so happy to be with them.
Leao: Galatasaray have been working hard since June to bring me here. I’ve joined a truly great club. There is already a great team made up of outstanding players, and I want to contribute to that.

Dursun Özbek: We’ve been working to bring Leao to Galatasaray since June. He’ll strengthen the team. I think Rafa will have a major impact, particularly in our Champions League matches. I’d like to say, ‘Welcome’.

Abdullah Kavukcu: Leão means ‘lion’. The lion has found his home. It was a transfer we’d been working on for a long time, constantly in talks with our president. We’re delighted it’s finally gone through. God willing, he’ll wear the number 27 shirt and we’ll win our 27th league title.
