Beşiktaş wanted to loan Cengiz Ünder from Fenerbahçe, and the eternal rivals had reached an agreement for the transfer. Initially, Cengiz was open to joining the black-and-whites, but his morale was affected by the reactions he received on social media. As the financial terms could not be agreed upon with the player’s side, the transfer was canceled.
In the summer of 2023, Cengiz Ünder, who was transferred from Marseille to Fenerbahçe for a then-record transfer fee of 15 million euros, was targeted by Fenerbahçe's eternal rival Beşiktaş, and an agreement was reached between the two teams. However, due to unexpected complications, Cengiz's transfer to the black-and-whites fell through.
REACTIONS AFFECTED HIS MORALE
According to a report by Yağız Sabuncuoğlu from Sports Digitale; despite the agreement between Beşiktaş and Fenerbahçe, Cengiz Ünder's morale was affected by the reactions coming from social media.
FAILED TO AGREE ON FINANCIAL TERMS
On the other hand, another reason for the failure of Cengiz's transfer to Beşiktaş has emerged. According to TRT Spor's report; Cengiz Ünder's transfer to Beşiktaş was canceled due to the inability to agree on financial terms.
SEASON PERFORMANCE
Since his arrival at Fenerbahçe, Cengiz Ünder has fallen short of expectations, having played 7 official matches in the yellow-blue jersey this season and only managed to stay on the field for 161 minutes. Cengiz did not contribute to the score in these matches. The 27-year-old player's current market value is reported to be 7.5 million euros, and he has a contract with his team until 2027.
