Liverpool midfielder Lucas Leiva is set to finally end his time at Anfield after Besiktas reportedly offered €4m to sign him.
According to Milliyet, the Turkish giants are set to make the offer for the Brazilian who has been knocked further down the pecking order at Liverpool this season.

The Istanbul outfit have already made enquiries for the experienced midfielder who is also of interest to Inter, and it appears as though they are favourites to sign him.
Reports last week suggested that his agent had flown out to Milan to discuss a transfer, but there have been no reports that the Serie A giants have made a bid.
The 28-year-old has suffered from injuries in recent years which have ensured that he has lost his place in the side under Brendan Rodgers.
Coupled with the arrivals of Emre Can, James Milner and others, it doesn’t appear as though he will have much playing time this season and so a move would undoubtedly make sense.
Lucas joined Liverpool in 2007 and has 22 international caps to his name for Brazil.
