Newcastle United midfielder Emre has agreed a bumper deal with Fenerbahce.

The News of the World says the Turkey midfielder, 27, will sign an £8million deal tomorrow after agreeing a three-year contract with the Istanbul club.

Emre, who began his career with Fenerbahce's arch-rivals Galatasaray, joined Toon from Inter Milan in 2005 for £3.8m.

A club spokesman said: "An agreement has been reached with Newcastle. Emre is one of the most accomplished Turkish players of all time."
