Besiktas striker Cenk Tosun due at Everton to complete move

Besiktas striker Cenk Tosun is ready to fly to England to complete his move to Everton.

The Sun says Tosun, 26, has agreed personal terms with Everton and is scheduled to arrive at Goodison on Tuesday.

He will pocket £145,000-a-week to swap Champions League football for the Premier League with Sam Allardyce's team.

Big Sam's priority in the January window is a striker - and Tosun will lead his attack for the second half of the season after sealing a contract until 2022.

Everton will fork out £25m for the striker, who posted a picture of himself on Oxford Street today, with another £3m in add-ons.

Allardyce will allow Oumar Niasse to leave the club when the German-born Turkish international arrives.
