Emre's Turkish delight as he quits Newcastle for Fenerbahce

Fenerbahce claim to have agreed a deal with Newcastle to take midfielder Emre Belozoglu back to Turkey.  

A statement on the Istanbul club's website, www.fenerbahce.org, read: "Fenerbahce have reached an agreement with Newcastle United in order to sign the Turkish superstar Emre Belozoglu."

Newcastle have yet to comment although it would not be a surprise if he were to leave St James' Park.  

The former Galatasaray and Inter Milan star has failed to shine in England after joining United in July 2005.  

The 27-year-old came to prominence after helping Turkey to a third-place finish at the 2002 World Cup in Japan and South Korea.
