Niasse finally set for Turkish move?

Updated Oumar Niasse's failed spell at Everton could soon be over amid reports from Turkey that Fenerbahçe are set to sign him.

BeyazTV are apparently reporting that a deal is in place with the Senegalese striker, which presumably means there is an agreement with Everton as well.

No fee is mentioned but it is likely that the Toffees will take a significant loss on a player whom Roberto Martinez signed for £13.5m 18 months ago and who has no future at Goodison Park under Ronald Koeman.

Niasse spent a period of last season on loan at Hull City but despite scoring goals for the Tigers, he could not prevent their demotion back to the Championship.

He has been linked with a move to Turkey on a number of occasions, with both Galatasaray and Besiktas mentioned as serious suitors, over the past year but none of the speculation has come to fruition.

Niasse has subsequently been reported by SabahSpor as telling close friends: “I just can't wait to return to Turkey. I missed the country very much.”
