Everton On Verge Of Losing Out On Barcelona Star To Turkish Minnows, La Liga Giants Demand Just €10m
Super Lig minnows Basaksehir are edging closer to a shock deal for Barcelona midfielder Arda Turan.
Turan’s agent Ahmet Bulut revealed that his client has agreed personal terms with Basaksehir.
Barcelona will make a final decision over the next two-three days.
The La Liga outfit could sell Turan for as little as €10 million.
Bulut said: “Arda has struck a deal with Basaksehir, it is now up to Barcelona.
“If Barcelona give him the all clear the transfer will be completed over the next two to three days.
“Arda could star at Barcelona for another two years and earn €20 million if he wanted but he wants to play.”
Turan has yet to play a single minute of La Liga football for Barcelona this season.
The 30-year-old has been linked with Everton in recent weeks and has admitted in the past that he would be keen on a Premier League move.
Meanwhile, Basaksehir boss Abdullah Avci told reporters that there is plenty of work to be done in order to complete the transfer.

“The process is continuing,” Avci told reporters.
“I don’t think there is any problem with him but this part of the talks with Barcelona is not easy.
“The situation will be made clear on Thursday or Friday.”
Barcelona want to part ways with Turan this month, the club have already given his No 7 shirt number to Liverpool attacking midfielder Philippe Coutinho.
Turan has not played in Turkey since leaving Galatasaray for Atletco Madrid in 2011.
