Yes it’s true! Roberto Carlos (if you don’t know who that is look him up on wikipedia) is going to start playing for Fenerbache, a soccer club here in Istanbul, next year. Fenerbache recently won the Turkish championships on their 100 year anniversary. They closed the season by announcing the deal. Check out the CNN article:

I know I am looking forward to the next besiktas v fenerbache game. An interesting little fact: Besiktas and Galtasaray are the only two clubs in Turkey on the European side. That means that most of their games are transcontinental games and are the only regular season transcontinental
games in the world.
