Arda Turan’s agent has said that the Atlético Madrid midfielder, who has been linked with several Premier League clubs, will make a decision on his future within four days.
The Turkey international has expressed a wish to leave the La Liga club this summer and has been mentioned in connection with Manchester United and Chelsea. His representative, Ahmet Bulut, says that a resolution is imminent.
“A lot of things about his transfer are being published but not everything they say is true,” he told NTVSpor. “We want to clarify that at this time there is a lot of pressure about this situation but we don’t want to make a formal statement about his destination before he signs. That being said, in the next four days Arda will decide which team he’ll play for next season.”
Bulut added that Atlético have reluctantly accepted Turan’s decision to depart. “Our decision really surprised Atlético Madrid,” he said. “They don’t want Arda to leave and were persistent but in the end, they respected and accepted our decision. But of course, nothing is completely done until he signs. However, we made sure the message was clear that we wanted to leave Atlético.”
Turan, who has won 81 caps for his country, joined Atlético from Galatasaray in 2011. He won the 2013-14 La Liga title with the Madrid club and was a Champions League runner-up during the same season.
