Fanatik reports on Fenerbahçe's interest in signing Orkun Kökçü from Benfica. Fenerbahçe is interested in signing Orkun Kökçü. Benfica is demanding a 30 million Euro transfer fee. The player is keen on leaving due to issues with coach Bruno Lage. Galatasaray and Beşiktaş are also interested, and there is interest from Premier League clubs Liverpool, Manchester United, and Tottenham.

Fenerbahçe, managed by Mourinho, is also interested in acquiring Orkun Kökçü on loan. They are considering a loan deal if Galatasaray's transfer fee demand becomes too high. Galatasaray currently appears to have an advantage in the transfer race due to their Champions League appeal, but they may need to increase their financial offer to secure the transfer.

Fanatik has reported that Fenerbahçe is interested in acquiring Orkun Kökçü during the summer transfer window, viewing him as an ideal player to strengthen their team by giving him more freedom to play as an offensive midfielder. However, the club faces a challenge as Benfica is unwilling to sell Orkun for less than 40 million Euros, a price that is considered high for Fenerbahçe. It is known that Orkun has previously admitted to being a Beşiktaş fan. Additionally, A Bola has mentioned that Orkun Kökçü recently had a heated dispute with Benfica's coach Bruno Lage after being substituted in a FIFA Club World Cup match against Auckland City, an incident that reportedly intensified Fenerbahçe's interest. Furthermore, José Mourinho, who leads Fenerbahçe, is eager to have Orkun as the marquee signing for the summer.
