Atletico Madrid Poised To Land Turan

Atletico Madrid appears to have won the race to sign long-term Liverpool target Arda Turan.

Liverpool has been keen on the Turkey international for over two years and scouts have tracked his progress with Galatasaray.

Turan's career has taken off with the Turkish giants and he is keen for a new challenge, having previously stated his admiration for Liverpool.

Numerous clubs across Europe want the 24-year-old, with Liverpool among them, but officials from Madrid have been in contact with Galatasaray regarding the winger.

Liverpool is keen on bolstering their options on the wings and has already signed Stewart Downing this summer.

Turan, however, looks to be heading to Madrid, with Galatasaray said to be resigned to losing him.
