Apasport.az website reports quoting Turkeyâ€™s Dogan news agency that Ibadov mediates in the transfer of Turkish Sercan Yildirim to one of the most famous teams of England. It is not reported with what status Rza Ibadov participates in the transfer.

Head coach of Turkish national team Fatih Terim invited Sercan to the friendly matches against Azerbaijan and France. Fenerbahce, Manchester United, Liverpool, Manchester City, Tottenham and Hamburg are interested in the forward from Bursaspor.

Liverpool is ready to pay â‚¬7 million compensation for Sercanâ€™s transfer. Azerbaijani businessman Rza Ibadov, who lives in London, attends the meetings. Manager Bernard arranges the transfer. The main rival of Liverpool in the struggle for the most talented footballer is Manchester City. The team financed by Arab sheikhs offers a large sum for Yildirim. But Liverpool officials are expected to come to Turkey and finish Sercanâ€™s transfer soon.
