In a statement posted on its website Tuesday, the top-flight Turkish club said Ferdinand had agreed to the terms of a loan deal that includes the possibility for Bursaspor to buy the player at the end of the season.

The club says the 27-year-old Ferdinand passed his medical and a signing ceremony will be held Wednesday.
