Everton have allowed Cenk Tosun to return to Besiktas on-loan with the view to maximising his selling price.

Tosun has returned to his old club to the end of this season and has a year to run on his Blues deal.

Fanatik says Everton chose to allow the striker to make the loan move with the sole purpose of him getting a regular game and so upping his value.

The Toffees paid €22.5m for Tosun three years ago from the Turkish giants.

Everton have allowed Tosuon to join Besiktas on a free loan and also will cover a significant percentage of his wages.
