Everton May Have To Pay More Than £25m Million For Cenk Tosun As Transfer Talks Continue
Everton may end up having to pay more than expected for Besiktas striker Cenk Tosun.
The Guardian reported that the Toffees had an agreement for £25 million with the Black Eagles over Tosun.
The Echo is now claiming that the transfer fee could end reaching as high as £30 million for the Turkish international.
Everton have been locked in talks with Tosun over the weekend.
Toffees director of football Steve Walsh flew to Istanbul on Friday to try and wrap up the deal amid fears it could be hijacked by rival sides.
A source close to Besiktas also revealed to Turkish-Football that Besiktas want to include a 10 percent future sale clause in his contract.

Tosun’s teammate Tolgay Arslan dropped a hint regarding his future.
Arslan was asked whether Tosun would be a success at Everton following the 3-1 Turkish Cup win over Osmanlispor on Thursday.
The midfielder responded by saying: “Hahahahahaha, is he going going? I swear he is going to France. No I’m joking, of course he will be a success there.”
Tosun appeared to wave farewell to the fans following the cup clash.
