Fenerbahçe President Ali Koç and the team responsible for transfers have accelerated their efforts to strengthen the defensive line during the winter transfer window. The Yellow-Navy club sat down with the players it targeted, especially for the center-back and left-back positions, but the transfer fee demands turned out to be far above expectations.
Negotiations for Milan's young center-back Pavlovic, as well as Lens players Kevin Danso and Facundo Medina, who were among Fenerbahçe's primary targets, stalled as both clubs made high transfer fee demands.
THEY OPENED THE DOOR AT 25 MILLION EUROS
According to a report by Milliyet, Milan and Lens opened the door for their players at 25 million euros. This situation caused Fenerbahçe, which does not want to exceed its transfer budget, to take a step back for all three names.
NEGOTIATIONS HAVE BEGUN WITH ALTERNATIVE NAMES
Following the high transfer fee demands, the Yellow-Navy management and Sporting Director Mario Branco have begun contacts with alternative players. It has been learned that Fenerbahçe, which aims to add at least two center-backs and one left-back to its defense, is working to reach agreements with new candidates that fit the budget.
