Kartal Doesn't Want Him But Saudis Are Interested for 15 Million: Amrabat
A bid approaching 15 million euros has come from Al Ittihad for Sofyan Amrabat, who has been sidelined by İsmail Kartal. Fenerbahçe's expectation, however, is at the 20 million euro level.
Not in Kartal's Plans
For the management aiming to enter the new season with a competitive squad at Fenerbahçe, the players leaving are just as important as the new transfers. One of these players is Sofyan Amrabat. Head coach İsmail Kartal does not consider the Moroccan midfielder in his squad plans.
No Serious Move from Real Betis Yet
According to TRT Spor, Amrabat is waiting for an offer from Real Betis, where he played on loan last season. However, it is reported that the Spanish club does not want to disrupt the internal salary balance, which is why they have not made any serious moves so far.
Concrete Offer from Al Ittihad
Meanwhile, Al Ittihad from Saudi Arabia has taken action for the player. It is reported that the club has made a verbal offer to Fenerbahçe approaching 15 million euros, including bonuses.
Fenerbahçe's Expectations Are Higher
The management is said to be expecting 20 million euros for the 29-year-old midfielder. It is noted that all official offers received by the club so far have been below 10 million euros — meaning even Al Ittihad's offer falls short of the club's expectations.
Discussions Ongoing with Three Clubs
It is stated that discussions are ongoing with one club from Saudi Arabia and two clubs from Europe for the Moroccan player. This indicates that Fenerbahçe is evaluating multiple options simultaneously to maintain its bargaining power regarding the price.
