Milan previously had a negative attitude towards an offer made for Youssef Fofana. After coach Allegri approved his departure, Youssef Fofana was placed on the transfer list for 30 million Euro. Fenerbahce has resumed efforts for the French player following this development. It is stated that Fofana does not want to leave, but Allegri informed his player that if he stays, he will not get much playing time.

Fenerbahçe is interested in signing midfielder Youssouf Fofana and has made a €20 million offer to Milan. The transfer is considered difficult because manager Allegri considers Fofana an important part of the squad. Fenerbahçe is optimistic a deal can be reached because Milan's management might accept the transfer fee and the team has many other midfield options.
