Jose Mourinho's Fenerbahce are on the verge of signing a Premier League star.

The Turkish outfit announced on Wednesday that Nelson Semedo has 'arrived in Istanbul to further his transfer negotiations with our club and undergo a medical examination.'

Semedo is now a free agent after his contract with Wolves expired and he confirmed his departure earlier in the day via a emotional post on social media.

The full-back joined the club on a free transfer from Barcelona in 2020 and went on to make 182 appearances, scoring three goals and providing 11 assists.
