Kasimpasa are set to announce the signing of Chelsea midfielder Danny Drinkwater.

The former England international touched down in Istanbul on Friday for a medical with Kasimpasa and to sign terms.

Kasimpasa had added Drinkwater's name to their squad last week, but the deal had stalled over flight trouble.

However, club owner Turgay Ciner sent his private jet to collect Drinwater and take him to Istanbul on Friday.

The midfielder joins the Turks on a six-month loan, with Kasimpasa coughing up €80,000 to Chelsea for his six month loan.
