There’s a claim in the Turkish media that Fenerbahce are showing interest in Leicester City midfielder Boubakary Soumare.
It’s been well documented throughout the summer that the Super Lig side are looking to sign a central midfielder and they’ve been linked with a number of players from the Premier League.
Aslinda today report the Leicester City player is the latest midfielder that Fenerbahce have on their radar. Since Fred picked up an injury during pre-season, Jose Mourinho has been keen to bring in an experienced central midfielder to fill the void left by the former Manchester United man.
The Turkish media outlet say Fener have taken concrete steps to sign Soumare, with just ten days left of this transfer window. There’s no indication of whether those steps involved an offer.
Soumare spent last season on loan at Sevilla and made 34 appearances for the Spanish side. He’s contracted to Leicester City until June 2026 and was a used substitute during the Foxes 1-1 draw with Spurs on Monday night, although he came on very late.
