Turkish Super League 2026/27 Season

[W Jr.]

The transfer window is proceeding rather quietly at Fenerbahçe as well. The new management is trying to avoid leaking news to journalists and the media during the transfer window and is attempting to announce transfers via FBTV or the radio. The Nathan Ake transfer has already been finalized, but another name currently being discussed is Mason Greenwood. Although the club is trying to proceed quietly, there have been many rumors circulating and being shared recently suggesting that this transfer will go through.

If the Greenwood transfer goes through, Fenerbahçe will have acquired a significant player. However, the salary they will pay him could create problems for Fenerbahçe. Fenerbahçe, under the new president Aziz Yıldırım, has set a salary cap. If the salary exceeds that level, I think Fenerbahçe will ask the players to balance their salaries. I also think they are right to avoid leaking information to the press, because this situation could even prevent potential transfers.

They say Mason Greenwood is set to join Roma and that negotiations are at an advanced stage, but the player is asking for a lot of money, so the situation is currently on hold. It’s true that Fenerbahçe are really going all out with signings and wages, I don’t know where they’re finding all that money, but they’re certainly bringing in top class reinforcements like Aké.

If Fenerbahçe pays the player a very high price, it could create unrest within the team. Perhaps that's why Aziz Yıldırım is against this transfer. He had heard beforehand that the player was asking for too much money. Last year, he had a very good performance with Marseille, scoring many goals and providing assists. However, if Fenerbahçe is going to face financial difficulties by signing him, perhaps it's better not to sign him. Besides, Fenerbahçe's problem isn't the wingers. They already have many wing players. They've also signed a good striker. Fenerbahçe currently lacks defensive fullbacks. In my opinion, it would be more logical for them to focus on strengthening those positions.

If the new president has already stipulated a market cap, I don't think the club will agree to pay him any fee higher than that, it's that simple. The talk that he'll balance up if his salary exceed the salary cap of the club is confusing to understand.
Mason Greenwood is a talented player so I expect Fenerbahçe to go all out to secure his services ahead of next season if they truly want to end Galatasaray's dominance. Just like you said, it's better they stop putting everything out in the media before the deal is finalised, much revelation about the deal might give other clubs who are interested in him the loopholes to captialise on and hijack the deal.

Like I would say again the Fernebache side are showing good signs in this current transfer window in anticipation of the upcoming season, the upcoming season is probably going to a very interesting one not only for Galatasaray or Fernebache but for other clubs too who are also active in this transfer market.

Galatasaray has successfully dominated the Turkish super league for a very long but in the upcoming season they might face severe competition from the Fernebache due to the kind of squad that Fernebache are putting together for next season.

If I were in Aziz Yıldırım's place I'd do my best to sign Mason Greenwood instead of Serhou Guirassy... Because he is only 24 years old!

He is such an amazing talent that he can play very productively as a right-winger and centre-forward both. He can play a big role in ending their longing for a Super League title.


Galatasaray is after Ødegaard. Arsenal wants €40m. I think he's definitely worth it! If we get him we can add lots of creativity in our game.

Both players are good options, but I would prefer Mason Greenwood. I hope Aziz Yıldırım does the same and provides the necessary budget for this transfer.
Teams like Roma are also interested in this player. I understand Fenerbahçe is paying the asking price, but the problem is the payment, the installment plan. For a player like this, the club might have to stretch its finances a bit, if necessary.

Real Madrid is reportedly set to offer 220 million Euro for Olise. Transfer fees in the Turkish League no longer come as a surprise. Prices are rising all over the world as you can see. Paying 15-20 million for average players has become the norm. Back in the day you could sign a star player for that kind of money. Now you have to pay that much for an ordinary player.

40 million Euro for Ødegaard is a perfectly reasonable figure. In the past people would have said such a transfer was out of the question, but now that's become the norm too. After the amount paid for Osimhen, nothing surprises us anymore. Budget limits aren't an issue anyway. The exchange rate was high a few years ago, but since the rate of increase has slowed significantly in recent years, that gap has narrowed as well.

With the World Cup quarterfinal matchups now set, only two players from Turkey remain: Amrabat, playing for Morocco, and N’Golo Kanté, playing for France. Both players are with Fenerbahçe. These two teams will face off tomorrow, and only one will advance.

In yesterday’s match, Davinson Sánchez was eliminated after missing a penalty kick. He was the only player left from Galatasaray. Aside from them, the teams of Oh Hyeon-gyu and Agbadou from Beşiktaş, as well as Oulai and Wagner Pina from Trabzonspor, were also eliminated. If France wins the championship, Fenerbahçe’s player Kante will have lifted the trophy for the second time.

[Slow death]

Everything indicates that the state of negotiations between Fenerbahçe and Olympique is irreversible. From what I'm seeing on Fabrizio Romano's Twitter page, he said the contract will be until 2030, a long-term contract, but the amount they're going to spend on him is very high, €40 million is a large sum. I wonder how many players Fenerbahçe will be able to sign after him. Because if his salary is very high, then it means Fenerbahçe will have limited finances until June 2030, which is many seasons. I think the management needs to use their heads and look carefully at the future.

Fenerbahçe played a friendly match against Admira Wacker today under head coach İsmail Kartal. The opponent was Admira Wacker, a team from the Austrian Second Division, and they proved to be a very easy opponent for Fenerbahçe. While matches like this don’t reveal much about the team’s overall profile, the change in Fenerbahçe’s playing system was already noticeable in this game. The players especially Fred were the ones most delighted by İsmail Kartal’s return to Fenerbahçe, and he really made his presence felt in this match. Let’s see if İsmail Kartal can end Fenerbahçe’s championship drought this season.

[LGD2Business]

The goalkeeper rotation changed in a single day. It turned out great. Ersin Destanoğlu's contract had expired. We said goodbye to him. On the same day both Alexander Nübel and Doğan Alemdar were signed to replace him. The new goalkeeper rotation is great. I think they'll keep Emir Yaşar as the 3rd goalkeeper as well. It looks like we won't have any problems in goal for years to come. I hope the new goalkeepers are very successful at Beşiktaş.
Ersin played an important role in the 2021 championship, but Beşiktaş needed much better goalkeepers now. The management made another smart move. Önder Özen is doing well so far.

Let’s see if İsmail Kartal can end Fenerbahçe’s championship drought this season.

Since there was nothing else to watch, I caught bits and pieces of the match. The opponent was very weak. Fenerbahçe won 5–0, but it was a typical pre-season game; the majority of the players who featured in the lineup will either move to other clubs or be sent out on loan.
Çağrı Balta looks physically fit. To get regular playing time, he needs to be loaned out to a good team.
If he stays with the squad, he won't be able to break out of the role of a benchwarmer during the season.
Although Fenerbahçe appears to be in good shape, the opposition was very weak; while they once played in the Austrian Bundesliga, they are currently competing in the second division.

Fenerbahçe put on a good performance in their first preseason match, even though most of their starting 11 were absent. They played well with their reserves and even their young players, defeating their opponent by a lopsided score of 5-0. It seems that İsmail Kartal has made an immediate impact. Cengiz Ünder had a strong game. The arrival of Greenwood will further strengthen the wings, and an improvement in performance from the veteran players is crucial for rotation purposes.

[Jossque]

Beşiktaş signed two goalkeepers at once and strengthened its goalkeeping rotation. They thanked Ersin Destanoğlu and parted ways with him. By adding Nübel and Doğan Alemdar to their roster, Beşiktaş has, in my opinion, made some solid moves to improve their goalkeeper rotation. I can’t say much about Nübel, but I think signing Turkish goalkeeper Doğan Alemdar was an important move for them in terms of their domestic rotation.

[CLS63]

While I was happy with Fenerbahçe's getting close to signing Mason Greenwood I was devastated with another news.

I have heard that Atletico Madrid has also made an offer for him with a similar amount to ours. But they say their salary offer is lower than ours.

However he can still choose them over us because of the opportunity to play in a big team of the La Liga.

And Salih Özcan transfer has also been announced. Beşiktaş have signed a very good midfielder. Salih's contract with Dortmund had expired. The national team player joined on a free transfer. He will be paid an annual salary of 2.5 million Euro. I think this was a fantastic transfer. The quality of Turkish players needed to improve. We've moved up from Salih Uçan to Salih Özcan.
Some have doubts because he hasn't played many games in the last 2 seasons, but we all know how good Salih can be when he plays regularly. Considering his age, he should be right in his prime. A player who doesn't play regresses, once Salih gets playing time here he'll only get better.

[lodocus]

According to reports, Galatasaray appears to have reached an agreement with Lesley Ugochukwu. The player, who currently plays for Burnley, has previously played for teams such as Chelsea, Southampton, and Rennes. The news has not yet been confirmed, but even names such as Fabrizio Romano have shared this:

OK with Nathan Ake joining Fenerbahce....there is no way and no need for a Kim Min-jae transfer!
I still had slight hopes since the outlets here kept spreading rumours
Anyway since I found my interest in outrights again - I will surely back Fenerbahce on the outright market before the season starts!

He could form a strong midfield duo with Salih Orkun, though Salih needs a bit of time.
Beşiktaş has also completely overhauled its goalkeeping lineup; Nübel will be the first-choice goalkeeper, and Doğan the second.
Beşiktaş has made a sound investment in the future regarding goalkeepers.
