Turkey welcomes Everton striker Yobo for one season

Everton defender Joseph Yobo has inked a deal for Turkish side Fenerbahce on a season-long loan.

The arrangement, which includes the option to make the transfer permanent next summer, went through ahead of the closure of the Turkish transfer window after the 29-year-old agreed terms and passed a medical.

Yobo, who joined Everton from Marseille in 2002, has not played for the club this season, most recently missing the 1-0 defeat by Aston Villa last weekend with a slight thigh problem.

Yobo, who was David Moyes' first signing as Everton boss, has made nearly 200 Premier League appearances for the Toffees.

Yobo has represented Nigeria in two World Cups, captaining the Super Eagles in South Africa during the summer.
