Stop us if you've heard this one before... Joseph Yobo's move to Fenerbahçe is being described as 'close' to completion... which various media sources have been reporting for weeks now as the summer's most annoying transfer saga drags on into August.

The fee that has apparently been agreed is still €2.5m and the only new information from Turkish-Football.com appears to be that Fenerbahçe's manager told his superiors he needs the deal sorted out in short order seeing as the Turkish league season kicks off in 19 days, and that the Nigerian defender is set to return to Turkey in the coiming week to resume pre-season training with the Yellow Canaries.

Yobo apparently spent a week at Finch Farm training with Everton before going to Nigeria to await the finalisation of his permanent transfer to Fenerbahçe...

I'm glad I checked this link as it seems that Jane is 4 miles away.

What excellent news, Yobo's deal is close to completion, it's great to see a deal go through with so little effort and complexity, it's such an honour for our great club to be involved with the likes of Fenerbache who conduct themselves so well and honour their word..........

Right now back to the real world! I so hope we never do business with these no good crooks ever again, unless it's us ripping them off.

Make Yobo pay the outstanding monies if he is that desperate to move. EFC have to make a stand, not be dictated to.
