Reports in Turkey are claiming that Fenerbahce have put forward an official offer for Christopher Nkunku, but below the asking price.
MilanNews relay the latest from Sports Digitale and Now TV Türkiye journalist Yagiz Sabuncuoglu. They state that Fenerbahçe are willing to put forward a maximum of €25m to sign Nkunku, compared to Milan’s asking price which is around the €35m mark.
The negotiation, as the journalist reports, is still ongoing. Nkunku’s name is reportedly a specific request from the Fenerbahçe coach Domenico Tedesco, who had the forward at RB Leipzig when he was in terrific form in the Bundesliga.
Nkunku was bought by Milan from Chelsea in the summer for €37.5m plus bonuses, and is coming off a brace in the league against Verona which gave him his first two goals in Serie A. Despite this, however, the rumours that he could depart the club after just a few months aren’t subsiding.
In Italy, however, several prominent journalists are reporting that the Frenchman has openly told his entourage that he doesn’t want to leave Milan in January. He wants to focus on building on the last performance, to try and boost his hopes of being at the 2026 World Cup with France.
