Fenerbahçe has reportedly set a firm price for the potential transfer of Moroccan striker Youssef En-Nesyri, making it clear they will only consider offers that meet their valuation of €40 million.
According to reports from Turkish media, the club is unwilling to engage in prolonged negotiations over the 26-year-old forward, whose performances have been outstanding this season.
Fenerbahçe’s hierarchy is said to be keen on securing a deal with a Saudi club, believing they are more likely to meet their financial demands without drawn-out bargaining.
The Turkish club wants Youssef En-Nesyri to join a Saudi club in order to obtain the said sum.
European clubs are often very negotiating and prolong discussions in the hope of lowering the amount,” a source was quoted as saying.
The decision comes at a time when Fenerbahçe is reportedly facing financial difficulties.
The club sees En-Nesyri as a key asset who could generate much-needed revenue, potentially alleviating some of the financial strain.
While European clubs have expressed interest in the Moroccan international, their approach to negotiations is seen as a hurdle, with Fenerbahçe determined not to accept offers below their asking price.
The club remains steadfast in its valuation, knowing that En-Nesyri’s market value has risen following his consistent performances at both domestic and international levels.
En-Nesyri, who has previously played for Leganés and Sevilla, has been a standout performer in recent seasons.
His ability to find the net consistently, combined with his physical presence and aerial dominance, has made him an attractive prospect for clubs looking to bolster their attacking options.
For now, Fenerbahçe awaits potential suitors willing to meet their financial expectations.
Whether the Moroccan striker will remain in Turkey or make a high-profile move elsewhere remains to be seen as the transfer window approaches.
