Fenerbahçe's Vice President Acun Ilıcalı made statements that will be widely discussed regarding the transfer of Marcus Rashford from the English giant Manchester United.
"IT WAS OFFERED TO US, WE SAID NO"
Speaking live on English Sky Sports, Ilıcalı said, "There were reports that we were interested in Rashford. First of all, Rashford is a great player. However, when you have some plans for your team, it doesn't make sense to have two players who are very similar in the same position. These types of players need to play regularly, and if Rashford comes, one of the other players cannot play. When this transfer was offered to us and came before us, unfortunately, we said no, meaning there is nothing regarding this transfer. Of course, there were some rumors, but I can comfortably say that we were not interested. But Rashford is a good player," he said.
In response to a question about the relationship with Manchester United and English clubs, Acun Ilıcalı stated, "We have our goalkeeper at Manchester United. Altay Bayındır is a top-level goalkeeper, and I am proud of him. I know him well. We have good relations with Manchester United. In football, anything can happen at any moment. I also have very good relations with Aston Villa. Relationships are important in football. Football is a world of relationships."
