Mario Gomez looks set to swap Fiorentina for Besiktas, with the clubs in negotiations over the striker.
Super Lig side Besiktas have confirmed they are in negotiations with Fiorentina over a move for striker Mario Gomez.
The
former Germany international has been heavily linked with a move to the
Turkish giants in recent weeks, having spent the last two seasons at
the Stadio Artemio Franchi.
Gomez has scored 14
goals in 47 appearances for the Serie A club - despite missed large
chunks of his first season in Florence due to a knee problem.
The
Turkish club confirmed in a statement on Wednesday that they had
"started negotiations with Fiorentina regarding the player's transfer".
Ahead
of Senol Gunes' first season in charge, Gomez would likely serve as a
replacement for striker Demba Ba, who signed for Shanghai Shenhua last
month.
