Bamba Dieng close to signing in Turkey

Now a free agent after a wild final season with Lorient, Bamba Dieng is set to leave France for Turkey.

According to reports from Matteo Moretto, the Pikine-born striker is expected to head to Amed SK. The Kurdish club is shaping up to be one of the Süper Lig's most exciting attractions next season and is looking to rely on the Senegalese international to lead their attack.

Dieng was previously close to joining Saudi club Al-Shabab before negotiations stalled due to the Saudi Pro League, and now only a few details remain to finalize his move to Amed SK.
