Bruma, which Galatasaray transferred from Sporting in 2013 for 13 million euros, came to Istanbul to sign a contract with Fenerbahçe. At the request of the coach Jorge Jesus, the Yellow-Navy Blues leased the Portuguese star for 1 year with the option to buy.

The story that started in Galatasaray
At the age of 19, 6 months after transferring from Sporting to Galatasaray, Bruma, whose cruciate ligaments were torn and rented to Gaziantepspor, fell short of the expected performance after injury and went to Real Sociedad on loan in 2015.
The 27-year-old Portuguese winger, who could not meet the expectations in the Spanish team and scored only 3 goals and provided 1 assist in 33 matches, started to rise with the Galatasaray jersey in the 2016-17 season. Bruma, who scored 11 goals in 30 league games he played, scored 6 assists.
Transferred to RB Leipzig for 15 million euros in the 2017-18 season, Bruma’s two-year adventure in Germany was mediocre. Bruma then went to PSV Eindhoven in 2019 and returned to PSV at the beginning of last season after spending 2020 on loan with Olympiakos.
Years full of trophies
Bruma, who performed 10 goals-4 assists in 46 games played in all lanes with the PSV jersey last season, won the Super League championship with Galatasaray in the 2014-15 season. Bruma, who won the Turkish Cup in the same season with the yellow and red team, also took part in the championship in 2013-14. Bruma, who lived his last championship in Galatasaray with a Super Cup victory in the 2016-17 season, contributed to PSV Eindhoven’s Eredivisie and Super Cup championships.
