The Senegal international has scored 11 goals in 18 appearances in all competitions for the Turkish club this season.

Sporting and technical director Luke Dowling said: “He comes to us with some goals under his belt and naturally we hope he can continue his good form with us.

“Scoring goals is the most difficult part of the game but we feel he will come with confidence and we hope that will rub off on the squad.

“Signing players in January is all about hitting the ground running. We hope Mbaye can do that as quickly as possible with games coming thick and fast.

“I think he’s a player our supporters will enjoy watching and I hope he can score the goals we need to help us win more games.

“The biggest thing for us is that he really wanted to come which is massively important to us in the position we find ourselves.”
