Besiktas following Everton’s Tosun

He went to Premier League but it has not worked out for him and now he could be going back to his native country. According to Turkish media outlet Sabah, Besiktas are planning on opening talks with Everton to take striker Cenk Tosun on a six-month loan.

The forward has not enjoyed his time in England at all and now he has not be playing almost at all for Marco Silva’s side in recent months. He is widely reported to be close to leaving Goodison Park in January transfer window, as no one at Everton sees him as a realistic option to start regularly up front. His 20-odd months in England since joining the Toffees in January 2018 have not been good and now a return to Turkey could be on the cards.

Tosun scored 16 goals for Turkey in 40 appearances and he has a great reputation in his native country, whilst in England he scored just eight Premier League goals.
