Will Ferdi Kadıoğlu join Nuri Şahin at Borussia Dortmund?

The transfer of Ferdi Kadıoğlu, who played for the Turkish National Team against Georgia in EURO 2024, remains one of the most curious topics for Fenerbahçe fans.

European giants are lining up for the young star, whose current market value exceeds 20 million euros.

Dortmund, which wants to sign Ian Maatsen permanently after he joined the team on loan from Chelsea last season, is about to lose its target player to Aston Villa.

Dortmund, having initiated efforts for Ferdi, is expected to open its purse strings for this transfer.

While it was thought that Ferdi Kadıoğlu was being sought due to the influence of Nuri Şahin, who was appointed as the team's head coach, Fenerbahçe is expecting a transfer fee of at least 35 million euros for this move.

Fenerbahçe President Ali Koç, in a statement he made about Ferdi Kadıoğlu approximately 2 weeks ago, said the following:

"It is essential that Ferdi stays with us next season, but if an extraordinary offer like 35-40 comes along, we will sit down and talk."

Ferdi is expected to make his decision after EURO 2024.

Speaking to Milliyet as part of EURO 2024, Ferdi said the following about Arda Güler: "Regarding Arda, I can say this: We see that he has increased his physical strength since going to Real Madrid. This is one of the areas he has improved. He had some unfortunate injuries in the first half of the season, but he came back stronger. Because when you look at the other side, these kinds of difficulties also help you develop. And we saw him to be confident. His talent is indisputable, he has, so to speak, velvet feet... When he gets the ball at his feet, he shows what a talented footballer he is."
