Report: Barcelona reach Arda Turan agreement

Barcelona have reportedly reached an agreement with Atletico Madrid to sign midfielder Arda Turan during this summer's transfer window.

The Turkey international has expressed his desire to leave the Vicente Calderon this summer, and had been thought to be on the verge of a move to Chelsea.

However, Sport now claims that the La Liga champions have agreed a five-year deal with Turan worth €35m (£24.8m), although his agent has denied that a contract has already been signed.

If Turan does move to Barcelona, he may have to wait until January to make his debut, as the Catalan side are currently the subject of a FIFA transfer embargo.
