Ajansspor claim Fenerbahce are close to signing Douglas Luiz from Manchester City on a loan deal.
The Turkish club have pulled out of a deal to sign Marco Fabian from Frankfurt and they’ve also confirmed they have no intention to sign Moussa Sissoko despite claims an offer was made with Tottenham Hotspur.
According to Ajansspor, Fenerbahce are looking to sign Manchester City’s Douglas Luiz before Friday’s Super Lig deadline. The Premier League champions are said to be willing to loan the player to the Istanbul club due to his issues getting a work permit in England.
It’s claimed Fenerbahce are hoping to confirm his signing in the coming days after getting an ‘agreement in principle’.
Douglas Luiz was previously linked with a move to Galatasaray this summer but the CimBom instead signed Stoke City midfielder Badou Ndiaye.
Manchester City signed Douglas Luiz from Vasco de Gama for €12m in 2017 and the player is under contract at the Etihad until 2022.
