The Italian press reported that Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe are in the running for Christopher Nkunku, who is wearing the Milan jersey. The article highlighted the phrase "Nkunku is going to Istanbul," but no clear information was shared about which team the star player will sign with.

A striking claim has emerged from Italy regarding the transfer agenda of the two strong candidates for the championship race in the Super League, Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe. According to reports in the Italian press, it has been suggested that the two eternal rivals have set their sights on French forward Christopher Nkunku, who plays for Milan.

"NKUNKU IS HEADING TO ISTANBUL"

The claim was brought to the forefront in an article published in Italy's Repubblica with the headline "Nkunku is heading to Istanbul." The report emphasized that the star player's new destination could be Istanbul, while noting that Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe have shown interest in the player. However, no definitive statement was made regarding which team's jersey Nkunku would wear.

MILAN'S TRANSFER FEE EXPECTATION IS 35 MILLION EUROS

The report also stated that Milan does not want to incur a significant loss on the player they acquired from Chelsea for 37 million euros at the beginning of the season. For this reason, the Italian club has set its transfer fee expectation for Nkunku at around 35 million euros.

MARKET VALUE HAD REACHED 80 MILLION EUROS

Christopher Nkunku reached his highest market value of 80 million euros during the 2022-2023 season. The 28-year-old player, whose current market value is shown as 32 million euros, has played 14 matches for Milan since August, contributing with 1 goal and 2 assists.
