Demba Ba has arrived in Turkey to complete his move to Besiktas.

The Chelsea striker has been spotted in Istanbul after the Blues yesterday tied up a deal for Atletico Madrid powerhouse Diego Costa.

Third-choice: Demba Ba didn't get much of a look-in at Chelsea

Ba was Jose Mourinho’s third-choice frontman last season after finding himself behind Samuel Eto’o and Fernando Torres in the Stamford Bridge pecking order.

Mourinho had wanted £10million for the former Newcastle hitman but the two clubs are believed to have settled on a figure of around £8m.

Chelsea signed Ba from Newcastle for £7million in January 2013.
