Fenerbahce new recruit Andre Ayew is unhappy his best friend Bafetimbi Gomis left the Turkish Super Lig to sign for a Saudi Arabian club.
Gomis who was in the books of Galatasaray left to sign for top-flight side Al Hilal.
Ayew and Gomis have been clubmates twice-at French giants Olympique Marseille and at Swansea City during the 2015/2016 season.
The Ghana international had wanted to reunite with his friend in Turkey but that's not to be-at least for now.
''I was disappointed by Gomis' departure because my best friend left. We are very close, he's like my brother. I respect him very much and he respects me. I talked with him about the transfer.
''Gomis loved Galatasaray and he was very popular here. He had to leave and so he left.
''I wanted to play in a derby against him. But God knows what's best for us. Of course, his departure will make Galatasaray weaker. This gives us an advantage in the title race.''
