Atletico close in on Gokhan Tore

Atletico Madrid are inching closer to a summer deal for Turkey international Gokhan Tore, according to a Spanish source.

The former Chelsea graduate has been in top form for Besiktas this season, and has notched up nine goals and 11 assists in 43 games for the club.

According to Spanish daily AS, the 23-year-old will be sold at the end of the season, with Besiktas facing a financial meltdown.

It is added that Atleti have made an offer of around £3.5m for the talented midfielder, and this is likely to be accepted, given the Turkish club's need to pay off some of the outstanding debts.
