Future Chelsea target moves to CSKACSKA have closed a deal to bring Real Sociedad striker Nihat to Moscow, staving off interest from Valencia in the process.
After the Turk underwent two separate medicals in Germany and England to prove his fitness after knee surgery, contracts will be signed in the next 48 hours.
Nihat is expected to spend a season at CSKA before being moved onto Chelsea, if he impresses manager Jose Mourinho, where Blues owner Roman Abramovich also has an interest in the Russian club through his oil company.
Real will receive a cool £6 million for Nihat, which could rise to £7 million dependent on appearances and success.
