WHAT A DAY FOR BURSA AND BURSASPOR FANS AND FOR THE AMERICANS WHO FOLLOW ALTIDORE ON INTERNET AND TWITTER!

IT WAS LIKE, WHO WHERE AND WHEN......BREATH TAKEN!

FINALY, ALTIDORE AND HIS MANAGER, DECIDED, IN THE LAST MINUTE....

ALTIDORE WILL BE IN BURSA FOR SIX MONTH ......

Turkish Chanpions Bursaspor signed US national team player Altidore on a loan deal...

And He arrived in Bursa with privete jet on Tuesday....



On Wednesday , at 14:00 local Turkey time( 9:00 Am,ET) Bursaspor will have a signing ceromony in their Bursa stadium....

I bet you , Altidore will be shock!

There will be more than 20 thousand people at the stadium for this event.....

After the signing ceremony ,Altidore will practice with Bursaspor for the first time in Turkey!

Jozy Altidore is going through the medical check up today...

So, on Wendsday, Altidore will be welcome by green an white "crocodiles" Bursaspor fans, like he never seen before..

We like to warn him ahead.....

Bursaspor with Kenny Miller and Jozy Altiodre will be really good up front and they will score a lot of goals along with Turkish young player Sercan Yildirim.

Bursaspor is on second place currently and two points behind first place Trabzonspor.

At his arrival in Bursa, Altidore told reporters that he joined Turkish side as he wanted to play in Champions League this year.

"last year, Villareal could not make to the Champions League. And I want to compete in this league," he said.

Lastly, Altidore said this but his manager told me Altidore came to Bursa for only six month.

So, you figure ,If Bursaspor plays in the Champions league next season Altidore will be with Bursa if not he will say good bye to Bursa at the end of his contract..

Still , he is very good addition to Bursa and Turkish soccer(football) in general.....

More Americans will know about Bursaspor and Turkey after Freddy Adu news now!

And more American soccer fans will follow Turkish soccer too.
