No problem

Fenerbahce have confirmed that they have signed Roberto Carlos from Real Madrid.

According to the official website, Carlos' agent Dino Pasalic arrived in Turkey on Tuesday night, and met with Murat Ozaydinli, one of the club vice presidents, to finalize the details.

Ozaydinli has confirmed that the deal is now official, and the player will arrive in Turkey to complete his medical and sign the contract in the coming days.

"We signed a player who perfectly fits with Fenerbahce's traditions," he told the club's official website.

"Everybody must be grateful to our president Aziz Yildirim. In the past, we could not mention even the names of ordinary players.

"But today, we can even sign such legendary players without having any problems.

"For the last two years, Fenerbahce are being talked upon on all corners of the world and this was our main target.

"Our meeting about Roberto Carlos' transfer took only 15-20 minutes. We told them our principles and it was all over.

"Dino [Palasic] came to Turkey late at night, we had a meal together and the deal was sealed. This is about the power of Fenerbahce, this is about the synergy we created here at Fenerbahce."

The news will not come as a surprise, as it was a deal said to be in the pipeline, though there was also the faintest of chances that he could have spent another year at the Bernabeu.

He leaves Madrid after eleven long seasons, during which he has won three Champions League trophies (98, 00, 02) and three La Liga titles (97, 01, 03). Interestingly, his first and last seasons have both seen him play under Fabio Capello.
