Ghana midfielder Emmanuel Agyeman Badu will arrive in Turkey later today to complete his season long loan with Turkish side Bursaspor.

The 26 year old is on board flight 1872 from the Italian City of Vernice and is set to arrive in Istanbul to join his new Bursaspor team-mates for the first time.

He will travel from Istanbul to Bursa where he is expected to be met on arrival by hundred of anxious supporters after completing his season-long loan deal.

The Ghanaian has a contract with Italian side Udinese which keeps him at the club to 2020.

However, the club had to let him go on loan where he has the opportunity to get more play time.

Udinese, Tuesday afternoon, released a statement confirming that “after more than seven seasons together, everyone at Udinese Calcio wishes Emmanuel all the best.”

Agyemang-Badu adds to the ever-growing presence of Ghanaian players in Turkey.

Ghana national team captain Asamoah Gyan joined Kayserispor in the Superlig last month while the likes of Joseph Attamah Larweh, Jerry Akaminko, Seidu Salifu, Emmanuel Banahene, Isaac Sackey are with other clubs in the European country.
