Arda Turan is about to seal his return home. The Turk has reportedly signed a pre-contract with Galatasaray despite Hannover's desire to sign him.

Arda Turan is free to sign for any club. His Barcelona contract expired on 30th June and Galatasaray have taken advantage to reach a pre-agreement with the footballer. 

According to 'AS', the Turkish outfit have offered him 200,000 Turkish liras (25,790 euros) for every game he plays for Galatasaray. In addition, if he wins the league he will receive a bonus of 500,000 euros

Galatasaray's intention is to announce the signing of the former Barcelona and Atletico Madrid footballer once the current season ends. There are three matchdays left. 

This is bad news for Hannover who were looking to get Arda Turan for next season, but they were obviously too late. 

"If it's financially possible, we would like to see Arda Turan in our ranks," Jenan Kocac, the Hannover coach, told 'TRTSpor'.
