FC Nantes on Wednesday activated their option to buy Mostafa Mohamed from Turkish side Galatasaray. 

In a statement, the French Ligue 1 club said that the Egyptian striker signed a four-year contract until 2027.

Mohamed joined FC Nantes from Galatasaray on loan on July 2022 and to date has scored 11 goals and five assists in 51 matches.

He signed for Nantes for a €250,000 ($255,000) loan fee, with an option to buy his contract for €5.7 million ($5.8 million).

The 25-year-old had moved the Istanbul Lions from Egypt's Zamalek Sporting Club in 2021.
