Fenerbahçe to Cash In on Amrabat and En-Nesyri
Fenerbahçe are preparing to offload four big names this summer, with Moroccan duo Sofyan Amrabat and Youssef En-Nesyri topping the sale list.
The Turkish giants are aiming to collect at least €60 million in transfer fees as they reshape their squad, according to Türkiye Newspaper .
Amrabat, currently on loan from Fiorentina, is expected to see his €13 million buy option triggered before being flipped for €20 million, netting Fenerbahçe a tidy €7 million profit.
En-Nesyri, meanwhile, is reportedly close to securing a €35 million move to Saudi Arabia. A blockbuster deal, but one that comes after a dramatic fall from grace.
When the Moroccan striker arrived from Sevilla last summer, fans believed they'd landed the missing piece – a target man No.9 ready to deliver titles. And for a while, he looked every bit the part, firing 26 goals and providing 7 assists in 47 appearances. From August to February, he was electric.
But since March 2, when he last scored against Antalyaspor, En-Nesyri has gone cold. However, the Moroccan hitman finally silenced the doubters on Friday night, finding the net in Fenerbahçe's emphatic 4-1 away victory over Başakşehir.
It was En-Nesyri's 17th league goal of the season, adding to his four assists, keeping him firmly in the race for the Golden Boot. His strike came as part of a dominant second-half display, as Fenerbahçe closed the gap to leaders Galatasaray to five points with three matches remaining.
The goal ended a two-month drought just days after the forward was booed off in the derby defeat to Beşiktaş. It was a much-needed response from the 27-year-old, who had faced heavy criticism in recent weeks.
Even José Mourinho, who once defended him publicly, now faces growing pressure.
'En-Nesyri scored 26 goals without taking penalties. He went through a challenging period during Ramadan, where he lost some of his form, but he is starting to get back to his best. He has proven that he is regaining his physical condition. He will play a key role in the remaining seven matches of the season, without a doubt,' Mourinho insisted earlier this month.
With veteran Edin Dzeko and midfielder Sebastian Szymanski also tipped for €5 million exits each, Fenerbahçe's summer clear-out looks inevitable. Tags: FenerbahceSofyan AmrabatYoussef En-Nesyri
