​According to French newspaper outlet ​L'Equipe, Yoan Gouffran is set to leave Newcastle for Turkish club Goztepe.





The left-midfielder has reportedly been offered a new contract at Newcastle, after his previous deal expired in July, however the Frenchman now looks set to seal a move to Turkey.

Gouffran made 39 appearances for Newcastle last season and was a key member in the team as they secured promotion back to the Premier League at the first time of asking.





During that time the 31-year-old Frenchman scored five goals and provided three assists, helping The Magpies eventually claim the Championship title.





Gouffran has been at Newcastle for five seasons since his move from Bordeaux in 2012, however in Newcastle's last Premier League campaign he barely played, as Moussa Sissoko was favoured in his position.

As a result it is thought that Gouffran is looking for a new experience in Turkey, where he can continue to play first team football.





Despite signing Cristian Atsu permanently it is thought that Benitez still wants Gouffran at the club, in order to provide competition in wide areas.





However Gouffran looks set to move to Goztepe who were promoted to the top tier of Turkish football last season.





Goz Goz, as they are locally known, earned promotion through the playoffs and are looking to add some quality and experience to their side, in order to try and cement their place in the Turkish Super Liga.
