    Fenerbahce coach Christoph Daum has confirmed a fee has been agreed and that they are now searching for his replacement.

    "The offer isn't very high in relation to the price we paid to have him," Daum told Milliyet.

    "But he absolutely wants to leave the club. So we will accept it and look for another attacker."

    ==================================
    Meanwhile, Lyon have not given up hope of re-signing Loic Remy and are believed to be close to finalising a €16million deal.

    Nice chairman Maurice Cohen and sporting director Eric Roy were desperate to keep Remy, however Lyon's offer was too good to refuse.

    16 million Euros for Remy ??? Certainly too much..it would've been ok if it had been for Guiza. Lyon have made some really really good signings this season though. I'm picking them to win the Ligue 1 this season.

    Ok, M.bastos is a good signing but A.cissokho and L.lopez?? i don't think aly is worth 15 nil because not enough appearance of fc porto and dont include the good performance against man utd. L. loPez is certainly don't worth 24 million, he certainly score goals in Portugal but in international and his price tag justifies he is not a 24 million hitman. at the most, aly will be worth 8-10mil while lopez will be 10-12 mil.

    I think 16 mil for Remy is a bargain if you have seen the way he plays and he is already is in the French squad....

    Remy's a decent striker, alright, but he plays for Nice and in the French League, for God's sake. Yes, he has real potential but I just think, at this moment, he wasnt worth 16mil.

    Frankly i think the french league is the 4th best league now of days. It is way ahead of GB. Remy is a pure talent, I watch alot of Ligue 1 so I know what i'm talking about. Remy is extremely fast, and he can finish. And consider this, the price is high because Lyon are buying him. If it was Cannes or Wolfsburg buying it be would be half.

    Yeah, agree on that, Nice are taking the mickey out of Lyon for wanting to buy Remy back. I just think Remy isnt ready for the big time, he still has a lot to learn.

    When I first read that, I was like "that's good, the chairman is nice and not mean". Then I wondered why they would include a description of his character trait. :|

    Then I realised what they meant.

    Wow, gotta hand it to Lyon for some amazing transfers this season. Gomis is true quality.

    I wouldnt call him "true quality" right now. Only true potential so far. He's a bit inconsistent although on his day he looks like Trez.

    Still, a brilliant transfer. Gomis might be inconsistent but remember so is Ibra :wink:

    Although last season he was terrible, but still...

    No way, they just bought Bastos who was one of the best players in Ligue 1. He was chosen in the top 4 players. Also Kallstrom was never a starter last season, just made 21 appearances.

    :|I honestly don't see Lyon getting another striker and not Guiza. Didn't he just finish his first season in Turkey??

    I wouldn't be surprised if he did end up moving...he's already played with 9 different clubs in his eleven year career.
