Fenerbahçe's young star Yusuf Akçiçek continues to make a name for himself with his performance this season. The 19-year-old center-back, whom head coach Jose Mourinho is closely watching and has entrusted with the jersey, has quickly made a significant breakthrough, attracting the attention of Europe's giant clubs. One of the best teams in the world has also shown interest in Yusuf.
LAST INTERESTED TEAM: BAYERN MUNICH
The latest team to show interest in Yusuf Akçiçek, who was recently called up to the national team, is the German giant Bayern Munich. Munich's scouting coordinator Gürkan Karahan and his team were at Ülker Stadium last Sunday to watch the young player. However, just like in the match against Antalyaspor, Jose Mourinho did not give Yusuf a chance to play against Samsunspor. Nevertheless, it has been learned that the Germans will continue to follow the young player.
BIG TEAMS ARE ALSO INTERESTED
On the other hand, the number of teams interested in the young defender is increasing every day. Pierre Reynaud, the chief scout of the French team PSG, has watched Yusuf several times, while Lille and Marseille are also showing interest in the young player. From England, Manchester United and Tottenham are among the clubs keeping an eye on the 19-year-old center-back. Many teams are expected to knock on Fenerbahçe's door during the summer transfer period.
RECORD TRANSFER FEE EXPECTED
Fenerbahçe, which wants to keep Yusuf Akçiçek in the team for the next season, is planning to showcase the young footballer in the Champions League to generate more transfer income from him. Additionally, the yellow-navy team has set a price for Yusuf's transfer. It has been learned that the management expects at least 40 million euros in transfer income from the 19-year-old center-back. If the transfer of the 19-year-old footballer occurs at this amount, it will go down in history as the most expensive transfer in Süper Lig history. Furthermore, with this amount, Yusuf Akçiçek will also break the record for the highest transfer fee paid for a Turkish footballer, previously held by Arda Turan (34 million euros).
ACUN'S COMMENTS ON YUSUF
Fenerbahçe Vice President Acun Ilıcalı recently made a statement regarding the young center-back, saying, "We have verbally discussed Yusuf Akçiçek. A message came from the sporting director of a team from the English Premier League after the Anderlecht match, saying, 'It is now 20 million.' He is not a player we are considering selling."
YUSUF'S SEASON PERFORMANCE
Yusuf Akçiçek has played 15 matches for Fenerbahçe this season and has spent 850 minutes on the field. Yusuf has contributed with 2 goals and 1 assist in these matches.
