Everton star closing in on loan switch away from the club

Yannick Bolasie appears to be closing in on a season-long loan move away from Everton this summer.

The DR Congo international has been heavily linked with an exit from Goodison Park and according to claims from the Turkish media, a deal is close to being completed as he heads to Fenerbahce.

Bolasie has long been linked with the Super Lig giants, with earlier reports suggesting that Fenerbahce were willing to pay a loan fee of £1.3 million to convince Everton to temporarily part ways with the winger.

The 29-year-old, who Everton signed for a fee believed to be in excess of £25 million from Crystal Palace in 2016, has struggled with injuries in recent times and it seems Marco Silva deems him surplus to requirements for the season ahead.

Fanatik’s report indicates that Bolasie, along with Swansea City star Andre Ayew, is close to joining Fenerbahce, with the agreement of personal terms set to be little more than a formality.
