Everton transfer news: Bid update emerges on Ferdi Kadioglu with Fulham also keen
Everton are reportedly in a transfer battle with Fulham to sign Fenerbahce defender Ferdi Kadioglu in this summer transfer window.
According to Milliyet [24 June], a “serious” transfer offer, which is understood to be in the region of £17.2million, is being prepared as the Toffees will be submitting it to the Turkish club.
While Fenerbahce want to keep hold of the 23-year-old, they may be forced to cash in due to “attractive” offers.
Worth considering
The Turkey international, who can also play out wide and in midfield, has been labelled as a “Star” player and among the finest in the country’s top flight.
Players that are too good for the domestic league often end up moving to the top European leagues and Kadioglu is likely to do the same thing.
After the season he’s had, it’s no surprise that two Premier League sides are interested in securing his services.
Not only is he capable at right-back, but he’s also solid on the other side of defence and this signing is a no brainer for the Toffees.
Having utility players who can perform exceptionally in all positions is a dream and Sean Dyche, if he’s at the club, would be relishing the prospect of working with him.
It remains to be seen if Everton can convince him to move to Goodison Park after the wretched two seasons they’ve had fighting relegation.
In Everton news, Alan Myers has shared a major update on Sean Dyche’s future after a development over his sacking has emerged over the past few days.
