Spartak Moscow midfielder Gedson Fernandes is being linked with a move to Turkish side Trabzonspor, with the probability of a deal currently rated at 17%.
The 27-year-old central midfielder, valued at €18.00m, is the subject of fresh speculation over his future, with the Russian Premier Liga club potentially facing a decision on whether to cash in or risk losing him as a free agent further down the line, with no contract expiry date publicly confirmed.
Fernandes, who plays primarily as a central midfielder and prefers his right foot, is on the books at Spartak Moscow, where he wears the number 83 shirt. Born on 9 January 1999 in São Tomé, the 1.83m playmaker holds dual nationality, representing both Portugal and São Tomé and Príncipe, and has developed a reputation as a dynamic presence between the lines.
The current talk of a switch to the Süper Lig comes against the backdrop of his recent outings in Russia’s top flight, where he has been a regular in Spartak’s midfield this season. In his latest appearance – a tight Premier Liga encounter for Spartak played earlier this month – he featured in a narrow contest that underlined his willingness to cover ground and link play, even as his side were unable to find a breakthrough in a low-scoring game.
According to the latest data logged on 25 April 2026, Trabzonspor are tracking the player as they look to reinforce their midfield options for the upcoming campaign. With no fixed end date listed on his Spartak contract, the prospect of him running down his deal and eventually becoming a free agent will be a factor in any negotiations and potential fee.
If the move does materialise, a transfer to Trabzonspor could offer Fernandes a prominent platform in the Süper Lig and a fresh chapter in his career at a stage where his market value and experience suggest he is entering his peak years.
