Fenerbahçe's management has been put on alert due to a series of injuries in the center-back position. Consequently, club officials have begun preparations for the January transfer window.
While Djiku's return to the team is nearing, it will not be possible for Rodrigo Becao to join the squad before the second half of the league season. Serdar Aziz, meanwhile, needs a few more weeks. Considering these circumstances, Fenerbahçe plans to add at least one center-back to its squad.
THE LEO OPERATION
According to a report by Takvim, Fenerbahçe has taken action for Leo Ortiz, who plays for the Brazilian team Bragantino. The yellow-navy team has held talks with the player's agent. It is reported that 27-year-old, 1.85-meter-tall Leo Ortiz is interested in playing in Europe. It has been stated that Fenerbahçe officials plan to meet with Bragantino club officials in the coming days.
It was also noted that another development has occurred regarding the player's transfer during this process.
BECAO STEPS IN
It has been reported that Becao knows Leo Ortiz well and has held a phone conversation to persuade the player. The star player's current market value is 6 million euros. Leo Ortiz's contract is set to expire on December 31, 2026.
Leo Ortiz has started in 18 of the 19 matches he played this season and recorded 1 goal.
