Diego Carlos, who is under contract with Fenerbahçe until 2028, might depart from Turkey just half a year following his transfer from Aston Villa in January. Lille has shown interest in reacquiring the former Nantes player for a return to Ligue 1. The discussions regarding a loan deal with an option to purchase are progressing well. Diego Carlos, who has participated in only four Super Lig matches since his arrival at Fenerbahçe, is enthusiastic about the prospect of returning to Ligue 1 and has reportedly agreed to join Lille. The 32-year-old Brazilian defender is considered a potential asset to bolster Lille's defense with his experience, and both parties are eager to conclude the agreement. The transfer is expected to aid Diego Carlos in revitalizing his career after experiencing limited playing time in Turkey. Transfermarkt estimates the player's current market value at €9.50 million.
