Fenerbahçe's transfer plans are taking shape, with the latest incoming link concerning Wolverhampton striker Tolu Arokodare. Our analysis of the past seven days shows the club has been tied to 10 possible arrivals and 1 potential exit. While the hottest storyline right now revolves around Serhou Guirassy, the items below represent the latest news on the most important transfer rumours surrounding the club.
Tolu Arokodare
Fenerbahçe is monitoring 25-year-old Wolverhampton striker Tolu Arokodare to strengthen its offense for next season, as his current club faces relegation from the Premier League. According to the latest update on Sunday, while Fenerbahçe remains attentive, Beşiktaş is reportedly in the best position to sign the Nigerian international, who has 10 caps and 2 goals for his country. A loan is considered a more realistic solution for any transfer, as his estimated market value of €22 million is seen as high for Turkish clubs. Arokodare joined Wolves in September 2025 and has a contract until June 2029.
Léo Pereira
On Sunday, it was reported that Fenerbahçe is one of several clubs competing with Olympiacos for Flamengo's 30-year-old Brazilian central defender, Léo Pereira. Galatasaray and Al Qadsiah are also in the running. A potential transfer could be challenging, as Flamengo are considered difficult to negotiate with. The player, who has two caps for Brazil, has a contract valid until 2027 that contains a €60 million release clause, though his market value is estimated to be between €9 and €10 million.
Bernardo Silva
According to a Sunday report from the Turkish newspaper Fanatik, Fenerbahce executives are expected to meet with the agent of Bernardo Silva in the coming days. The 31-year-old Portuguese attacking midfielder is set to leave Manchester City as a free agent on June 30 at the end of his ninth and final season. Reports from last Monday noted that Fenerbahce are interested in making a major signing, with Fabrizio Romano confirming Silva's departure.
Romelu Lukaku
Interest in Romelu Lukaku from Fenerbahçe has been renewed, according to a Tuttomercatoweb report from Wednesday. Süper Lig FR reported that the club directly contacted Lukaku's agent, Federico Pastorello, with a departure this summer considered very likely. A Spor also wrote that Fenerbahçe is closely monitoring the situation and is prepared to act if Napoli makes the player available, while La Gazzetta dello Sport reported that contact has been made with Lukaku's entourage.
Vedat Muriqi
Fenerbahçe has re-established contact with Mallorca for the transfer of Vedat Muriqi, according to a report in Sabah on Saturday. The club is said to be determined to add the 31-year-old striker to their squad, and the player reportedly has a positive attitude towards rejoining. The transfer is expected to be completed for approximately €5-6 million. On Thursday, Muriqi himself stated that a transfer was possible in the winter window, but his club did not give permission.
Leon Goretzka
On Friday, Fanatik reported that Fenerbahçe wants to strengthen their midfield with Leon Goretzka. The report added that club manager Ertan Torunoğulları and Devin Özek are making intensive efforts for the transfer. However, there is strong competition for the player, including from Atletico Madrid, Juventus, and Napoli.
Leon Bailey
According to a report from Sabah on Thursday, Fenerbahce is showing great interest in Aston Villa's Leon Bailey. The Jamaican international returned to his club in the winter following a failed loan at AS Roma and now seeks a move to a team where he can be a regular in the starting lineup.
