Just one year after arriving at the Estádio da Luz from Sevilla, the 28-year-old winger could be on his way to Turkish football for the same fee Benfica paid for him. While a final agreement has not yet been reached, the publication states that discussions between the two clubs are progressing rapidly.

The former Sevilla attacker, who boasts 33 caps for Belgium, is under contract with the Eagles until June 2030. However, he might be on the move this transfer window after a season where he scored just one goal in 33 appearances.

At the start of the current season, he has featured in four matches for Marco Silva's side (only one as a starter), contributing a goal against Hearts (1-1) and an assist against St. Gallen (5-0).
