Former Liverpool winger Ryan Kent is set to be allowed to return to the Premier League by new Fenerbahce boss Jose Mourinho, according to reports.
Mourinho took charge of the Turkish giants in June, shortly after working on the Champions League final for TNT Sports.
The Portuguese boss has been relatively active in the transfer market, splashing out a Turkish club record fee of around €20 million to sign Youssef En Nesyri from Sevilla.
Former Newcastle winger Allan Saint-Maximin has also arrived on loan from Al Ahli.

There has been less activity in terms of outgoings, though, with veteran centre-back Leonardo Bonucci deciding to retire and several squad players leaving the club.
Another potential departure is ex-Liverpool and Rangers winger Kent, who joined Fenerbahce last summer.
The 27-year-old scored one goal in 18 appearances in all competitions last term, with most of his game time limited to European competition.
But he could now be set for a return to English football, with reports claiming that newly-promoted Ipswich Town want to add Kent to their squad.
Turkish outlet Haber Ekspres claim that Fenerbahce have accepted a bid of £2.5 million from Kieran McKenna's side, and Kent will make the move to Portman Road barring any late setbacks.
He is therefore set to join an Ipswich side that have been busy in the market as they prepare for their first season in the English top flight since the 2001/02 campaign.
Omari Hutchinson has been signed from Chelsea for a club-record fee of £20 million after playing a key role in their promotion campaign while on loan, while Premier League experience has been added in the form of right-back Ben Johnson and goalkeeper Arijanet Muric.
Striker Liam Delap has also arrived on a permanent deal from Manchester City, while centre-back Jacob Greaves and left-back Conor Townsend have plenty of Championship experience and have joined from Hull and West Brom respectively.
