Crystal Palace striker Alexander Sorloth arrived in Trabzon last night to complete his move to Trazbonspor.

Yesterday we covered reports from Turkey with regards to the Super Lig side’s interest in the Norwegian, and it now seems they are very close to completing a deal for the Eagles player.

The Norwegian striker got a hero’s welcome at the airport with a number of Trabzonspor fans greeting him with chants and flares.

It’s been reported there are some details to cover with regards to the deal, but Fanatik say the 22 year old will join the Turkish club on a season long loan deal.

Reportedly Trabzonspor president Ahmet Agaoglu has managed get a deal done for the Crystal Palace man in ‘complete secrecy’ (which he clearly hasn’t) and Fanatik say he’s very happy with the imminent arrival of the young forward.

The Turkish newspaper report that after his medical, Sorloth will be officially announced as a Trabzonspor player.

Sorloth joined the Premier League side in 2017 but failed to make an impact in England, leading to a loan move to Gent last season.
