SYDNEY (Reuters) - Australia forward Harry Kewell has signed a three-year contract with Galatasaray, the Turkish champions' Web site reported on Friday.

Kewell, 29, joined on a free transfer after he was released by Liverpool following an injury-plagued five seasons with the Premier League club.

The move to Galatasaray means Kewell will not be one of Australia's three over-age players at the Beijing Olympics.
