A knee injury of the worst kind for Irfan Turuc

19 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Fenerbahce lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Market25 Jun 2035

Konyaspor come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Fenerbahce did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Ismaïla Sarr asks to leave Fenerbahce

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad25 Jun 2035

Cristian Shpendi says Fenerbahce went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Nicolás Domínguez is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Fenerbahce is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Tempers go at Fenerbahce

Marco Asensio was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

A knee injury of the worst kind for Irfan Turuc

26 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Fenerbahce lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Fenerbahce say no — this time

The offer from Adana Demirspor for Nathan Aké was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Market18 Jun 2035

Kaio César hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Fenerbahce can pretend not to have heard.

Patrick Dorgu wants more than Fenerbahce are offering

“I have ambitions, and I would like the club to share them.” Nobody has asked to leave and nobody has been shown the door — but a player chooses that sentence carefully, and a boardroom hears it exactly as it was meant.

A move Daniel Peretz would have made for nothing

There is a version of every career where the player ends up somewhere he chose rather than somewhere that chose him. Daniel Peretz is living that version at Fenerbahce, and it tends to show in the first month.

Marco Asensio in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Fenerbahce this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

In brief

  • Squad Christos Zafeiris falls out with a teammate over standards
  • Market Adana Demirspor are about to pick up the phone
  • The terraces Everybody has an opinion about Daniel Peretz
  • Boardroom The board put their hand in their pocket

Irfan Turuc damages knee ligaments — 34 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 34 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Fenerbahce refuse to drop out of the race

Position 1, 98 points, and the result everyone checks first is now theirs. The word is still not being said around the ground, which is how you know everyone is thinking it.

Konyaspor watching Yunus Akgün

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Fenerbahce have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Renato Nhaga has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Fenerbahce they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Mason Greenwood wants more than Fenerbahce are offering

“I have ambitions, and I would like the club to share them.” Nobody has asked to leave and nobody has been shown the door — but a player chooses that sentence carefully, and a boardroom hears it exactly as it was meant.
