A surprise name has come up in Trabzonspor's search for a midfielder. The maroon-blues, who want to reinforce the midfield during the winter break, want to add Gedson Fernandes, who had previously been on their radar, to their squad.

Trabzonspor, which has already begun efforts to strengthen its squad for the mid-season transfer window, is preparing for a change in its midfield setup. 

TRABZONSPOR HAS ITS EYES ON GEDSON

Although there is numerical depth in the current squad, the claret-blue management, which took action because the return obtained remained low, turned its course, in line with the report of head coach Thomas Reis, to Gedson Fernandes, who has previously worn the shirts of Galatasaray, Beşiktaş and Çaykur Rizespor in Turkey and knows Turkey very well.

THOMAS REIS GAVE APPROVAL

The 27-year-old Portuguese star, who has risen to the top of the transfer list that also includes Phillip Billing, who plays for Midtjylland, has submitted his request to leave his club Spartak Moscow to its management. The Trabzonspor management, seeing the player's desire to leave Russia and his Süper Lig experience as an advantage, decided to begin official contacts with Spartak Moscow after head coach Thomas Reis also gave his approval.

GOAL IS TO LOWER THE TRANSFER FEE

The Russian representative Spartak Moscow is asking for a transfer fee of 18 million Euros for the star midfielder. However, Trabzonspor aims to use the player's desire to leave the team as leverage and bring this figure down to a more reasonable level.
