It has been claimed that Fenerbahçe, which is competing for the championship in the Süper Lig, is set to add Salifou Soumah, who plays for the Azerbaijani team Zira FK, to its squad. The 21-year-old Guinean winger had previously transferred to Kayserispor, but his contract was terminated before he even played a match. The yellow-red team had received a two-window transfer ban due to the Soumah transfer.
It has been reported that Fenerbahçe, which is 4 points behind the leader Galatasaray in the Trendyol Super League, has made a surprising move in the transfer market.
CLAIM ABOUT SOUMAH FOR FENERBAHÇE
According to Imedias, Fenerbahçe is looking to add 21-year-old Guinean winger Salifou Soumah, who plays for the Azerbaijani team Zira FK, to their squad. It was stated that CSKA Sofia is also interested in the player, but Fenerbahçe is in a favorable position in the transfer.
"THE POSSIBILITY OF SIGNING IS VERY HIGH"
In a report based on a source close to the player, it was stated, "The possibility of Salifou Soumah signing with Fenerbahçe is very high. Initial contacts are continuing positively. The club is ready to pay the amount of 800,000 euros requested by Zira FC."
HE HAD CAUSED A PENALTY FOR KAYSERİSPOR 3 YEARS AGO
Salifou Soumah transferred to Kayserispor about 3 years ago, but his contract was terminated before he even played a match. Later, Kayserispor received a 2-period transfer ban from FIFA for violating the rule that "a player should not be unjustly terminated 4 times in a season," which included Soumah.
SOUMAH'S SEASON PERFORMANCE
Salifou Soumah has played in 29 matches across all competitions this season with Zira FK. Soumah has scored 8 goals and provided 4 assists in these matches. The 21-year-old footballer has a contract with his team until the end of the 2026-27 season.
