Fenerbahce president Ali Koc has finally explained Jose Mourinho’s sacking, describing it as a "bitter parting" but admitting his style of play was no longer acceptable. Mourinho, dismissed after only a year in charge, paid the price for his defensive tactics, with Koc insisting the team needed a more dominant approach going forward.
Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana could be set for a move away from Old Trafford, with Turkish side Trabzonspor pushing to complete a loan deal before their window closes. However, the move is not yet guaranteed, as the Cameroon international is waiting to review the contract terms before making a final decision and Onana’s future is still uncertain.
Fenerbahce were keen on signing Tottenham midfielder Yves Bissouma but they have now pulled the plug on the deal. The Mali international, who was part of Spurs' Europa League-winning campaign last season, was linked with a move away from North London this summer after falling down the pecking order under manager Thomas Frank.
Manchester United have reportedly agreed to loan out Andre Onana to Trabzonspor following the arrival of Senne Lammens. The Turkish transfer window remains open until September 12, meaning Trabzonspor still have a few precious days to get their man through the door before the deadline slams shut.
Arsenal have revealed their stance on selling Leandro Trossard amid strong links with Besiktas. The Belgian midfielder joined the Gunners in 2023 from Brighton and last month, he signed a new contract extension that will keep him at the Emirates Stadium until the summer of 2027. Trossard had earlier attracted interest from Fenerbahce when Jose Mourinho was still in charge of the club.
Manchester City have confirmed the departure of club legend Ilkay Gundogan, who has joined Galatasaray on a free transfer just one year after returning to the Etihad from Barcelona.
Manchester City have confirmed the departure of Ederson, who has joined Fenerbahce in a €14million (£12m/$16m) transfer. After arriving at City from Benfica in 2017, the goalkeeper made 372 appearances across all competitions and won multiple trophies, including six Premier League crowns and the Champions League. However, he fell down the pecking order under Pep Guardiola at the start of the new season and decided to seek an exit.
Ilkay Gundogan could be heading for a surprise move to Turkey as Galatasaray close in on a deal to sign the veteran midfielder from Manchester City. The 34-year-old only returned to the Etihad last summer after a spell at Barcelona, but with Pep Guardiola reshaping his midfield, Gundogan now looks set to depart once again and talks are advancing with the Turkish side.
Ederson has reportedly agreed a move to Turkish giants Fenerbahce, which will open the door for Gianluigi Donnarumma to complete his transfer to Manchester City from Paris Saint-Germain. Fenerbahce are set to fork out around €14 million (£12m/$16m) to sign Ederson, who is leaving City after eight trophy-laden years.
If Ederson leaves Manchester City before the transfer deadline, it opens up the Premier League giants to pursuing Paris Saint-Germain superstar Gianluigi Donarumma.
Jose Mourinho was spotted at the Istanbul airport waiting for his flight to leave Turkey after being sacked by Fenerbahce. Just two days after the Turkish club failed to secure a spot in the Champions League group stage, the Portuguese was shown the door. They were knocked out by Benfica in the Champions League play-off, losing 1-0 on aggregate.
Fenerbahce boss Jose Mourinho reportedly wants to raid Real Madrid for out-of-favour goalkeeper Andriy Lunin.

Jose Mourinho could reportedly make a sensational Premier League return with Nottingham Forest emerging as a shock potential destination.

Manchester City defender Manuel Akanji is considering his future after Galatasaray matched the Premier League champions’ £15 million valuation ($20.1m).
