Fenerbahçe is preparing to finalize the Talisca transfer, while reinforcements for the defensive line are also on the agenda. The Super Lig team has drawn attention with claims that it has entered the race for 20-year-old Uzbek center-back Abdukodir Khusanov, who plays for Lens. Following this development, football fans have begun to wonder who Khusanov is, which team he plays for, where he is from, and his age.
While Fenerbahçe has lost Oosterwolde and Becao to injury, the potential departure of Samet Akaydin from the team is also on the agenda. For this reason, the yellow-navies, who are trying to strengthen their defensive line, are planning to make two center-back signings and are reportedly taking steps for 20-year-old Uzbek footballer Abdukodir Khusanov, who plays for Lens.
ENGLISH TEAMS ARE CHASING HIM
It is stated that Fenerbahçe is preparing to make an official offer to the French club for Khusanov. It is also reported that English clubs are showing interest in the young player, who has a market value of 12 million Euros. Furthermore, it is noted that the famous manager Jose Mourinho also likes Khusanov and has approved the transfer.
This season, Abdukodir Khusanov has played in 16 matches for Lens and contributed with 1 assist.

Abdukodir Khusanov is an Uzbek footballer born on February 29, 2004. Playing in the defensive position, Khusanov began his career in the youth academy of the Uzbek club Bunyodkor and subsequently transferred to the Belarusian club Energetik-BGU Minsk.
