Deportivo signs Emre Colak on free transfer from Galatasaray

Madrid - Turkish international midfielder Emre Colak has signed a three-year deal to join Deportivo La Coruna from Galatasaray, the Spanish club said on Friday.

Galatasaray, who had three managers last season and finished a disappointing sixth in the Turkish Super Lig, won the Turkish Cup on Thursday but Colak didn't play.

"The player will go on holidays before joining us for pre-season training," Deportivo said.

Colak, 25, spent the last seven seasons in Galatasaray's senior team after a spell in its youth academy, making 132 appearances in all competitions for the Turkish giant.
