Season overview
Galatasaray renewed the squad with new signings including Ryan Babel, Adem Büyük, Jimmy Durmaz and the Nigerian youngster Valentine Ozornwafor. Some key players whose loan contracts had ended at the end of the previous season left the club, including Henry Onyekuru and Badou Ndiaye.
The club began its pre-season with the first training and medical tests in Florya on 4 July 2019. The team stayed in Istanbul until 14 July before beginning their Austria camp in Seefeld in Tirol from 17 to 23 July. The pre-season concluded after training sessions in Florya on 24 July.[1]
Due to breach of the UEFA Financial Fair Play Regulations, Galatasaray and UEFA agreed on a settlement lasting until the end of the 2021–22 season. This meant that the club had a calculated restriction on the number of new transfers it could include within the first team squad for the purposes of participation in UEFA club competitions. This calculation was based on the club's net transfer position in each respective registration period covered by the settlement agreement.[2][3]
