Besiktas are closing in on the signing of apparent Liverpool target Mario Gomez

The Reds have been heavily linked with the striker recently, with murmurs of a swap deal involving Mario Balotelli being put forward

It seems though that the Turkish side are keen to push a deal through and complete the signing before any kind of Liverpool-shaped setbacks.

The 30-year-old is currently at Fiorentina, who he joined from Bayern Munich in 2013, but since the move, Gomez has only managed 29 appearances.

Instant Replacement?

The news may come as a disappointment to Brendan Rogers who may have been trying too offload Mario Balotelli, and bring in a replacement at the same time.

The transfer kitty available at Anfield will have increased significantly since Raheem Sterling completed his move to Manchester City this week.
