Fenerbahçe caused a 27 million euro crisis in Germany.

German Bundesliga team Hoffenheim has not found what it hoped for from Attila Szalai and Mergim Berisha, who previously played for Fenerbahçe and for whom it paid approximately 27 million euros in transfer fees.

SZALAI WAS INSUFFICIENT

Hoffenheim, which found the performance of Attila Szalai, who was transferred from Fenerbahçe for 12.3 million euros last season, to be extremely inadequate, has decided to part ways with the Hungarian defender. Szalai will be allowed to leave Hoffenheim if a suitable transfer fee is offered.

HE HAS NOT PLAYED AT ALL THIS SEASON

Attila Szalai, who wore the Hoffenheim jersey only 5 times in the first half of last season, spent the second half of the season on loan at another Bundesliga team, Freiburg, and only came on as a substitute in 3 matches. The 26-year-old Hungarian defender has not played in any matches since returning to his team this season. Szalai has a contract with his team until 2027.

BERISHA IS ALSO ON HIS WAY OUT

On the other hand, another player who has passed through Fenerbahçe, Mergim Berisha, is also one of the names who has not met expectations at Hoffenheim. After transferring from Fenerbahçe to Augsburg, the German forward found himself at Hoffenheim but failed to justify the 14 million euro transfer fee paid to him last season.

INJURY AFFECTED HIM A LOT

The physical inability of Berisha, who suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury last November and was away from the fields for 8 months, also played a significant role in Hoffenheim's management's decision to part ways. Like Szalai, Berisha will leave the team if a suitable transfer fee is offered. Mergim Berisha, who has a contract with his team until 2027, has scored 1 goal and provided 1 assist in 17 matches he played for Hoffenheim this season.
