Fenerbahce Continues Transfer Work
Fenerbahçe continues its squad planning work for the new season without slowing down under the leadership of Portuguese coach Jose Mourinho. In addition to the players they have added to their squad during the transfer period, the yellow-navy team also plans to part ways with players who are not considered for the team.
Samet Akaydin Transfer Rumors
Samet Akaydin, who attracted attention with his performance in EURO 2024 under the National Team jersey, is on the agenda with transfer rumors. The name of the successful 31-year-old defender is mentioned with Mainz 05, one of the German Bundesliga teams.
It is stated that Mainz 05 made a loan offer for the player, who also attracted the interest of Fenerbahçe through Samet Akaydin’s agent. However, the yellow-navy management is not keen on a purchase option in the player’s transfer.
Fenerbahçe management has set a transfer fee of 6 million euros for Samet Akaydin. It is stated that the national football player’s preference is to stay at Fenerbahçe, and Mourinho will make his decision on the transfer after evaluating the player.
Past Performance and Panathinaikos Experience
Samet Akaydin was sent on loan to Panathinaikos during the mid-season transfer period last season and played in 15 matches in total. The successful defender, who contributed 1 assist during this period, hopes to be a part of Fenerbahçe’s future plans.
