It is reported that French club Lyon is showing interest in Fenerbahçe’s Brazilian stopper Becao. The 28-year-old player is on Lyon’s transfer list and the club is expected to start talks with Fenerbahçe for Becao soon. Fenerbahçe Technical Director Jose Mourinho plans on Becao as a rotation player, but the player is not in Mourinho’s main game plan. The yellow-navy management will evaluate the transfer if a good offer comes for Becao. Becao has a contract with Fenerbahçe until 2028. The Brazilian stopper, who played in 22 official matches last season, scored 1 goal. If Becao leaves, Fenerbahçe plans to make a transfer for the centre-back position.
Fenerbahçe’s first target in their search for a centre-back has been determined as Manchester United’s Swedish defender Victor Lindelöf. The 30-year-old player, who has a contract for another year, has been put on the sale list by Manchester United. Lindelöf, who has been playing for Manchester United since the 2017-2018 season, scored 1 goal and made 1 assist in 28 official matches last season. Lindelöf, who was transferred from Benfica for 35 million euros during the Mourinho era, is shown as the primary target in Fenerbahçe’s search for a stopper.
