Danny Drinkwater has arrived in Istanbul ahead of his loan move to Kasimpasa.
As Sportsmail reported on January 6, Drinkwater had reached an agreement with the Turkish Super Lig side but the deal was held up by Covid guidelines and restrictions on travel.
The 30-year-old is eager to kickstart his career after just 23 first team appearances for Chelsea since his £35million transfer from Leicester City in 2017.
