Galatasaray's Argentine forward Mauro Icardi is preparing to set an important record in the club's history with the goals he will score in the match against Gaziantep FK. If Icardi scores two goals in this match, he will earn the title of the highest-scoring foreign player. Having scored 71 goals in his Galatasaray career so far, Icardi aims to surpass Gheorghe Hagi's record of 72 goals and make his mark in the club's history if he nets two goals against Gaziantep FK. If he scores one goal, he will share Hagi's record.

Since the 2022-23 season, Mauro Icardi, who has been wearing the Galatasaray jersey, is preparing for the match against Gaziantep FK with a different motivation. The 32-year-old striker will have the opportunity to enter the history of the yellow-reds with the goals he scores this evening.

HAGI'S RECORD ON THE AGENDA

Having reached 71 goals in his Galatasaray career so far, Icardi aims to become the club's all-time top foreign scorer by surpassing Gheorghe Hagi's 72 goals if he scores twice against Gaziantep FK. If Icardi scores one goal, he will share Hagi's record.

HE MISSED A PENALTY IN THE CUP

Icardi had missed a penalty in the Ziraat Turkey Cup match against Fethiyespor earlier this week. The star forward will be on the field against Gaziantep FK to contribute to his team and to pursue his record goal target.
