Fenerbahçe head coach Emre Belözoğlu has added 25-year-old Danilo, who has attracted attention at Brazil's Botafogo, to his transfer list as part of the transfer efforts. It was reported that Fenerbahçe is eager to complete this transfer.
Emre Belözoğlu, who took charge at Fenerbahçe after İsmail Kartal, has begun forming his transfer plans.
FENERBAHÇE'S TARGET: DANILO
According to reports in the Brazilian press, Emre Belözoğlu has put 25-year-old Brazilian footballer Danilo, who drew attention with his performance at Botafogo, at the top of his list in order to increase resistance and quality in midfield. It was stated that the Canary is eager to complete the transfer of Danilo, whose name has been mentioned a lot, and that intensive efforts will be made.
CONTRADICTION OVER RELEASE CLAUSE
One of the most discussed issues during the transfer process was the player's release clause. Although Botafogo club stated that the international release clause in Danilo's contract is 200 million euros, it is claimed that in official documents this figure is around 20 million euros. This significant difference may play a key role in negotiations.
HE REJECTED ZENIT'S OFFER
Before the yellow-navy blues' interest, it was reported that the Russian team Zenit made a high offer of around 40 million euros to Botafogo for the player, but this offer was turned down because the 25-year-old Brazilian midfielder was not warm to transferring to Russia. Danilo's contract with the Brazilian team continues until June 2029. The management is expected to intensify contacts in the coming days for the successful player, whom Emre Belözoğlu wants very much.
