João Cancelo Transfer from Al Hilal to Fenerbahçe
João Cancelo, a 31-year-old Portuguese international, is reportedly interested in making a return to Europe after spending just one season in Saudi Arabia. According to the Turkish newspaper 'Sabah', Fenerbahce is hopeful of signing the experienced right-back. It is reported that Cancelo has expressed his desire to play in Europe again and is ready to accept significant salary reductions to facilitate the move. Fenerbahce's coach, José Mourinho, reportedly admires Cancelo for his technical skills. After his transfer from Manchester City to Al Hilal in the summer of 2024 for 25 million euros, Cancelo remains under contract with the Saudi club until 2027, earning approximately 15 million euros annually. However, his enthusiasm for returning to Europe indicates that he might be willing to negotiate terms that would allow a transfer to the Turkish club. Transfermarkt suggests the player's market value is currently €15 million, and there are also reports linking FC Barcelona with a potential move.
