Chelsea striker Demba Ba passes Besiktas medical


Chelsea striker Demba Ba has passed a medical at Besiktas and could complete a reported £8m move on Friday. 

Ba, 29, indicated on social networking site Twitter that he had arrived in Istanbul, posting a picture of himself wearing a Besiktas shirt. 
 
The transfer has been declared with the stock exchange in Turkey, but Besiktas have yet to confirm the signing.

Ba is likely to join Besiktas at their pre-season training camp in England once he has joined.

The former Newcastle forward only started 23 of his 51 appearances for the Blues, scoring 14 goals as he found himself third choice behind Samuel Eto'o and Fernando Torres.

And while Eto'o has since been released, Spain international Diego Costa has arrived for £32m and Ba appears to be surplus to requirements.
