Galatasaray femeni (Spor Kulübü) have announced the signing of Super Falcons striker Flourish Chioma Sabastine on a one-year contract.
Sabastine is the third Nigerian player signed by Galatasaray in recent months, following in the footsteps of international teammate Tosin Demehin and reigning African Footballer of the Year Victor Osimhen, who plays for the men’s team.
Sabastine joined the Yellow and Reds from French D’Arkema outfit Stade Reims.
The attacker reunites with Oluwatosin Demehin, who joined Galatasaray in September.
A product of Unnich FA, Sabastine played for Bayelsa Queens in her homeland before moving to Europe.
During her time with Bayelsa United, she won three titles and established a reputation as one of the most promising talents in the league.
Sabastine made headlines at the 2022 and 2024 FIFA U20 Women’s World Cups, scoring the winning goals for the Falconets in victories against France and Korea Republic and was also on target in a 4-0 win versus Venezuela.
The 20-year-old was in the Super Falcons team that faced Japan in a friendly in 2022, coming off the bench to replace Uchenna Kanu in the closing minutes.
The Aba-born forward will be hoping to emulate Osimhen who has started his Galatasaray career, registering eight goal involvements in his first seven games in all competitions.
