Croatian striker Tomislav Sokota looks to be on his way to Hertha Berlin after Benfica agreed a deal with their German counterparts.

Reports in the Portuguese press have suggested Sokota is ready to ink a three-year deal after agreeing terms with the Bundesliga outfit.

The 26-year-old was thought to be interesting several clubs across the continent but it is Berlin who have now stolen a march on Sokota's other suitors.

It is anticipated that the player will travel to Berlin next week to undergo a medical and put pen-to-paper.

Having enjoyed a successful season, Hertha chief Falko Gotz is keen to bolster his strike-force in time for the increased demands of European football.

Gotz has been linked with a series of high-profile front men, including Dortmund's Jan Koller, Bochum's Vratislav Lokvenc and Rennes star Alexander Frei but it would appear he has now landed his man with the signing of Sokota.

the ceremonies are over in the Gyor cemetery and Benfica are returning home

15h54Futebol/Benfica: Cerimónias em memória de Fehér terminaram com um grito: Miki ! Já terminaram as cerimónias no Cemitério de Gyor, na Hungria, onde a equipa de futebol do Benfica, treinadores e dirigentes foram prestar uma última homenagem a Miklos Fehér, falecido em Janeiro de 2004 no decurso de um encontro em que os “encarnados” actuavam em Guimarães. Depois da entrega de uma camisola com o número 29 aos pais do malogrado jogador, o plantel reuniu-se em redor da campa do seu ex-colega e os jogadores gritaram: Miki ! Lágrimas e muita emotividade à mistura foi assim a última homenagem do Benfica a Miklos Fehér.
