The transfer market is still open in the Turkish Super Lig, so Parma are reportedly on the verge of loaning defender Botond Balogh to Kocaelispor.
Serie A clubs can no longer purchase new players, but they are still allowed to sell to those clubs in leagues with later deadlines.

He had also been linked with a possible move to FC Basel in Switzerland, but is now seemingly on the verge of moving to Turkey for Kocaelispor.
This is only expected to be a loan agreement until the end of the season, so it remains to be seen if there will also be an option to make it permanent.
Last season, Balogh made 29 competitive appearances for the Ducali, but was not part of the squad for their two opening Serie A games this term.
