Uruguay goalkeeper agrees Galatasaray deal

Goalkeeper Fernando Muslera has joined Galatasaray from Lazio, the Turkish club have announced. The Uruguay international is currently on duty for his country at the Copa America and will join up with his new team-mates after the tournament. Galatasaray confirmed the news on their official website and revealed that the shot-stopper has signed a five-year contract. Muslera has been integral in Uruguay's progress to the semi-finals, saving a penalty from Argentina's Carlos Tevez to help dump the hosts out and then keeping a clean sheet against Peru in the last eight. The 25-year-old moved to Lazio in 2007 from Montevideo Wanderers and spent four years with the Serie A outfit.
