Stambul's "Fenerbahce" officially acquired London's "Chelsea" midfielder Raul Meireles for about 10 million euros.

Since the transfer window in Turkey closes only on Wednesday night, a four-year contract was signed with the Portuguese player.

In London, 29-year-old Meireles played from August of last year, when he was acquired from "Liverpool" for 14 million euros. During this time, he played 38 matches.

However, recently the midfielder rarely made it into coach Roberto Di Matteo's starting lineup.
