Emmanuel Eboue has agreed personal terms with Galatasaray and is now destined to leave Arsenal in a deal worth around £4m.
Eboue was a cult hero at the Emirates during his time as an Arsenal player but Arsene Wenger is keen on reinvigorating his squad this summer and the Ivorian is a casualty.
The 28-year-old spent six years in north London but never managed to hold down a regular first team place.
His career at Arsenal reached its nadir in 2008 when he was booed by sections of the home support during a match against Wigan.
Wenger later admitted Eboue's poor performance and subsequent barracking from the stands forced him to substitute the hapless star, having brought him on as a sub earlier in the game.
Eboue managed to win the fans over but he is now heading to Turkey after Galatasaray had a bid accepted.
