Juan Mata generates a very positive impact with his arrival at Galatasaray
Juan Mata has a new challenge. The Spanish international has signed a contract with Galatasaray (for two years), a historic Turkish club determined to return to the high level it had in the past. In the European part of Istanbul, and with the warmth of the more than 50,000 fans that fit into the Ali Sami Yen Spor Kompleksi NEF Stadyumu, Juan will demonstrate all the talent exhibited during his time at Valencia, Chelsea and Manchester United in a different competition.
His signing, announced along with those of Icardi, Demir, Rashica and Ross, caused a great impact and made headlines in the media around the world. The Turkish club itself published several videos of Juan on its social channels, including its YouTube channel with his first words as a Galatasaray player. The signings of Juan and the other players helped Galatasaray increase their followers on Social Networks: 83,000 in less than a day according to calculations by the prestigious Blinkfire tool.
