Fenerbahçe Club President Sadettin Saran announced the forwards he spoke to during the transfer window. Naming three star players, Saran said, "I personally wanted Lookman, but it didn't happen. We talked to Sörloth, there were other names, but they said they would come in May, not now. Darwin Nunez was also one of those we discussed."

Fenerbahçe President Sadettin Saran met with the press following the yellow-navy blue team at an event held at the Faruk Ilgaz Facilities and made statements regarding the recently concluded transfer period.

HE GAVE THE NAMES OF THE STRIKERS HE DISCUSSED

Sadettin Saran, who could not complete a striker transfer during the mid-season transfer period, revealed the names of three players they had discussions with.

''LOOKMAN, SORLOTH AND NUNEZ''

Sadettin Saran stated that they made transfer attempts for Ademola Lookman, Alexander Sörloth, and Darwin Nunez, saying, "En-Nesyri surprised us when he returned from the Africa Cup. We said we would continue with Duran and Sidiki. However, when Duran did something like that in the Bucharest match, we said oh no. We talked to a lot of people. It's very difficult to make a transfer during the break. If there is a mistake, it's my mistake; if they couldn't be acquired, I couldn't acquire them. No one is lacking. I am satisfied with the point we have reached. Our first priority was the midfield. I personally wanted Lookman, but it didn't happen. There were discussions with Sörloth, there were other names, but they said we will come in May, we can't come now. Darwin Nunez was also one of those we discussed."
