Fenerbahce are set to add Roberto Soldado to their ranks, with an agreement to sign the striker now in place.

Roberto Soldado has agreed a move from Villarreal to Fenerbahce.

Both clubs have confirmed the deal, with the Turkish side reportedly meeting a €5million exit clause in the striker's contract, with only final personal terms and a medical left before the transfer is completed.

The former Spain international posted a Twitter image showing him en route to Turkey. 

Soldado has spent two seasons with Villarreal, who he joined following an unsuccessful spell in the Premier League with Tottenham.

The 32-year-old only scored nine league goals in the last two campaigns and was restricted to 10 top-flight appearances last season due to an ACL injury.

Prior to his £26million Spurs switch in 2013, Soldado represented Real Madrid, Osasuna, Getafe and Valencia.
