BIG COMPETITION BEFORE THE MID-SEASON



With a short time left before the mid-season transfer window, Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray are once again facing off for the same star. The Italian sports newspaper Corriere dello Sport announced that the two Turkish giants are interested in Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, who plays for the Saudi Pro League team Al-Hilal.



CONTRACT EXPIRING



The report stated that the 30-year-old Serbian midfielder's contract is about to expire, and his manager Uros Jankovic has started renewal talks with the club. However, it was noted that the parties have not yet reached an agreement and that the player is open to a return to Europe.



"GALATASARAY AND FENERBAHÇE ARE READY TO BUILD GOLDEN BRIDGES"



In the report by Corriere dello Sport, it was stated, "A few years ago, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic was the star of Lazio, and since 2023, he has been wearing the Al-Hilal jersey. His contract is about to expire, and many clubs have entered the fray. Juventus is interested, and Guardiola appreciates him highly. In Turkey, Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe are ready to build golden bridges for Savic." According to the report, both clubs are preparing to make a high-salary offer to the player.



EUROPEAN GIANTS ARE ALSO WATCHING



It was suggested that not only Turkish clubs but also European giants like Juventus, Manchester City, and Inter are interested in the Serbian footballer. The possibility of a free transfer for Milinkovic-Savic has made him one of the most attractive names of the winter period.



SAVIC'S CAREER



The 30-year-old star player transferred to Al-Hilal for 40 million euros in the summer of 2023 after producing 69 goals and 59 assists in 341 matches with Lazio. Savic, who has also shown a consistent performance in Saudi Arabia, is known for his technical ability in midfield, physical strength, and leadership.
