Fenerbahce continue their efforts to strengthen their squad ahead of the new season. According to reports in the French press, the yellow-navy club have begun showing interest in Marseille's Brazilian winger Igor Paixao, following the transfer of Mason Greenwood.

It was noted that Paixao is not a new name on Fenerbahce's agenda. The Brazilian player was also tracked during the period when Jorge Jesus was the head coach, but a transfer did not materialize. It was stated that Marseille's financial situation could strengthen Fenerbahce's hand in negotiations this time.

MARSEILLE MUST SELL

It was reported that Marseille need to generate a total of 150 million euros in player sales by 2027 due to financial issues. For this reason, it was stated that the French club could evaluate offers that come in for Paixao.

COULD REUNITE WITH GREENWOOD

It was noted that Paixao is in no hurry to leave Ligue 1 and that many European clubs are also tracking the Brazilian player. If the transfer goes through, Paixao will reunite with Mason Greenwood, with whom he combined for goals at Marseille, this time in a Fenerbahce shirt.
