Fee finally agreed for Yobo
Everton and Fenerbahçe appear to have finally come to agreement over a fee for Joseph Yobo, with the Nigerian's protracted transfer expected to be tied up this weekend.
Citing a statement by the Turkish club, Turkish-Football say that a €2.3m deal has been struck after weeks of frustrating deadlock between the two clubs and that Yobo himself has agreed terms for €2m a season.
BBC World Service correspondent Oluwashina Okaleji added further credence to the report when he Tweeted a quote from John Shittu, the defender's agent saying:
Transfer fee has been agreed by both clubs. It should be finalised any moment [weekend].

IF no one has to go at the deadline, I'm pretty optimistic! (A rare feeling!)
Nevertheless, I hope you're rightly optimistic!
you are not a nice person. He served this club well and in his prime was a good player for this club - perhaps with a tendency for one mistake per match, but then so too was Gary Sprake.
during his time here we played 274 premiership matches and conceeded an average of just over 1 goal per game. He was also in the squad that came 4th in 2004/5.
So there was no need for the Good Riddance. James Flynn had it right - Good Luck.
If you can't say something nice about somebody, don't say anything. The benefit of saying something nasty about someone you do not know is . . . ?
Eric, I think we all thought QPR were manageable. We never learn.
1. We will start this season with a much better first team than we started last season, including a world class finisher.
2. My memory (and the stats) recalls that we battered QPR in that game to which you refer, but our toothless attack (Beckford started that game, and Saha come on as a late sub) couldn't stick the ball in the onion bag.
I prefer to be optimistic, and support the comments of Tony (699), largely because I believe that we WILL start with a better first team this time round. We can all make smart-arsed comments with the benefit of hindsight, but I'm happy to add my name to the more positive Toffeewebbers, going into the new season.
I expect a good start to the season and hope we can have a great run with Jelavic banging them in from the off putting us right up there with the best!
Can Moyes Do it Again for us, Champions League??!!
I do feel confident in the squad, COYBB!!!
