ISTANBUL
Turkish midfielder Emre Belozoglu has signed a two-year contract with Spain's premier football division side Atletico Madrid, the Spanish team said Tuesday in a statement posted on its website.
Belozoglu is expected to arrive in Madrid on Thursday and pen the deal to become Atletico Madrid's second Turkish international after Arda Turan, who is with the Spanish giant since August last year.
"Emre is like a big brother to me and I have learnt a lot from him. I am sure he will put in all he's got for Atletico," the statement quoted Arda as saying.
