Galatasaray have opened negotiations with Benfica over a loan for Gedson Fernandes, with the Portuguese international's 18-month loan at Tottenham to be cut short.
The 22-year-old has endured a torrid time at White Hart Lane, not featuring once in the Premier League this season under Jose Mourinho.
Fernandes' two appearances have come in the Carabao Cup against Chelsea and in the FA Cup versus Marine earlier this month. He was also left out of Tottenham's Europa League squad.
The midfielder joined Spurs on an 18-month loan deal last January from Benfica, with the club holding the option to make the move permanent for £45million.
