Galatasaray to launch bid for Arsenal fullback Eboue

Galatasaray are moving for Arsenal fullback Emmanuel Eboue.

The People says the 28-year-old was left behind in London with fellow outcasts Nicklas Bendtner and Manuel Almunia last week as the Gunners jetted to Asia for their pre-season tour.

And the Turkish outfit are closing in on a deal for the Ivory Coast international.

Eboue has had a difficult relationship with Arsenal's fans, never more so than when they booed him as he was being replaced against Wigan in 2008 after coming on as a substitute.

He eventually recovered from that episode, but has never been considered a regular under Arsene Wenger.

And his time in London is on the brink of ending after six years at the club.
