Nigerian striker, Henry Onyekuru, is in talks with Turkish Super Lig champions Galatasaray, over a loan deal.
ESPN reports that Onyekuru travelled to Istanbul on Monday morning.
The 21-year-old passed his medical and is expected to be announced as a Galatasaray player over the next 48 hours.
An agreement between the Lions and Onyekuru has already been reached and the Turkish giants are confident Everton will not block the move.
The Turkish club want a buyout option but it remains to be seen whether the Toffees will agree to including an exit fee.
Galatasaray released a statement on the Istanbul stock exchange confirming that talks with Everton are underway.
It read: “Official talks with Everton FC are underway regarding the loan transfer of Henry Chukwuemeka Onyekuru.”
Onyekuru will not be able to play in the Premier League next season because he does not have a work permit.
