The highly rated keeper has made it clear that he's not ready to move to Turkey...

According to a report in Het belang van Limburg, Turkish powerhouse Fenerbahce are closely monitoring Standard Liege goalkeeper and Champions League goal-scoring hero Sinan Bolat.

The young shot stopper has been of the star players for the Belgian title-holders in the past couple of months and his good performances haven't gone unnoticed in his native country.

The report suggests that Fenerbahce are ready to make a €2.5 million offer for Bolat. However, it seems unlikely that the 21-year-old will leave Standard in the near future.

"I'm not yet ready to move abroad. I want to stay at Standard for at least two more seasons. I'm very happy to be here and I'm important for the team," Bolat was quoted as saying.

The gloveman joined Standard from Genk in January 2009 for a reported fee of €150.000.
