Cengiz Under, who played for Besiktas last season but failed to make the expected breakthrough, cannot even make the squad at Fenerbahce. The star footballer, who is seeking to find a new club for himself, is holding talks with European and Saudi Arabian clubs.

Cengiz Under, who was Sergen Yalcin's favorite during his tenure as head coach at Besiktas, is currently making intense efforts to find a new club.

''GIVE HIM TO ME, I'LL MAKE HIM A STAR IN A MONTH''

Before coming to Besiktas, Yalcin had made a bold statement on a television program he attended, saying, "Give Cengiz to me, I'll make him a star in a month." As soon as he took office, he persistently requested Under, who could not find playing time at Fenerbahce. The management reached an agreement with Fenerbahce and added the player to the squad on loan.

COULD NOT MAKE THE EXPECTED BREAKTHROUGH

However, although the national player could not make the expected breakthrough at Besiktas, he played in 26 matches. When the paths parted with Sergen Yalcin at the end of the season, Besiktas did not purchase Under's transfer rights. The footballer returned to Fenerbahce, but he cannot find a place in the squad in the yellow-navy blue team either.

SEEKING A CLUB FOR HIMSELF

Cengiz Under, who is not included in Fenerbahce's future plans, has entered a search to find himself a club. Although the star's name is currently being mentioned with European and Saudi Arabian clubs, no concrete transfer has happened yet. Cengiz Under's contract with Fenerbahce also expires at the end of this season.
