Fenerbahçe is interested in Saint-Étienne's 24-year-old winger, Zuriko Davitashvili, who is under contract until June 2028. Competition for the player has increased with the interest from Everton and Benfica. Besiktas had also been interested a few weeks prior. Despite these interests, the Saint-Étienne leadership, Kilmer Sports, is inflexible and has stated that selling the Georgian international this winter will not happen. The club considers Davitashvili essential for its goal of promotion at the end of the season, though the player and his entourage do not necessarily share this view. According to Transfermarkt, Davitashvili has a current market value of €8.00m. In the current Ligue 2 season, he has scored 8 goals and provided 1 assist in 16 appearances, and has earned 52 caps and scored 7 goals for Georgia.
