Transfer Developments in Fenerbahce and Galatasaray
Fenerbahçe has accelerated its transfer operations to address the deficiencies in its midfield following its defeat against Lille. Similarly, Galatasaray is planning to make changes to its squad following its defeat against Beşiktaş in the Super Cup match at the Atatürk Olympic Stadium. This process has led to some departures and new player searches in the red-yellow team.
Cimbom had previously turned to alternative players after failing to get the results they expected from Brazilian player Wendel, who they were interested in. However, according to Sabah newspaper, Fenerbahçe management is getting ready to step in and knock on Zenit’s door for Wendel.
Wendel, who scored 4 goals and made 7 assists in 27 matches last season, is a Brazilian star who has been making a name for himself recently. Fenerbahçe’s initiative to acquire this player is of great importance in terms of the club’s goals.
Fenerbahçe management may have a chance to conclude transfer talks positively thanks to their close relationship with Zenit. However, Zenit’s efforts to keep Wendel on the team seem quite persistent. Wendel’s contract with the club runs until 2027.
In addition, the player’s recent performance increase may cause his value to increase. This situation may create difficulties for Fenerbahçe in the transfer process.
