Rodrigo Zalazar, a 26-year-old Uruguay international midfielder, is reportedly being pursued by both Fenerbahçe and Zenit. He is considered the top priority for Devin Özek, Fenerbahçe's football director. It is believed that neither club has made a formal bid at this stage. Braga are hesitant to approve another player's exit, a position reportedly influenced by the recent club-record-matching €32 million transfer of Roger Fernandes to Al-Ittihad, according to Portuguese media. As a result, any potential transfer for Zalazar is viewed as difficult unless his €60 million release clause is met. The midfielder's contract with the Portuguese club runs until June 30, 2028, and Transfermarkt lists his market value at an estimated €18 million.
