Besiktas president Ahmet Nur Cebi is keen to bring Everton striker Cenk Tosun back to Istanbul, ending his uninspiring four-year spell on Merseyside.
However, the Turkish international's wage demands could prove a stumbling block for any move back to his former club. Tosun is out of contract at the end of the season and looks set to leave Goodison Park after failing to live up to expectations.
The Blues brought the 30-year-old to England in a deal worth £27milllion in January 2018, but he has only made 26 starts and 35 substitute appearances for the Toffees during that time, scoring 11 goals in all competitions.
