Fenerbahçe Closing In On Permanent Deal For Milan Škriniar

Fenerbahçe are working hard to get Milan Škriniar from Paris Saint-Germain on a permanent transfer. Talks are going well, and the Slovakian defender is seen as a big addition for the Turkish team for the new season.

According to a previous report, Fenerbahçe is negotiating with PSG to sign Milan Škriniar permanently.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Škriniar joined Fenerbahçe on loan last season from PSG in January. He played 16 matches, scored three goals, and had two assists, which is great for a central defender. His performances helped Fenerbahçe finish second in the Turkish Super Lig and reach the quarterfinals of the Turkish Cup and the last 16 of the Europa League.

Fenerbahçe finished second in the Turkish Super Lig last season, missing the championship by eleven points, as noted in a previous report.

Now, Fenerbahçe are close to agreeing on a permanent deal with PSG, and both clubs are hopeful they will agree soon.

WHY THIS MOVE MATTERS

Škriniar played only five Ligue 1 matches for PSG last season, but he has found new energy in Istanbul. The management sees him as very important to improve their defense and bring experience. With José Mourinho as coach and new signings like Jhon Durán, the club wants to catch up with rivals Galatasaray and compete for the title and success in Europe. Škriniar’s leadership and defense can be important as Fenerbahçe look to the future.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR FENERBAHÇE AND ŠKRINIAR?

The next steps are to finalize the terms of the permanent deal and fully include Škriniar in preseason plans. Fenerbahçe aim to build on last season’s league run, where they finished just behind Galatasaray. Their next match is in the Champions League qualifiers in July, as mentioned in a previous report.

With Galatasaray as the champions, Fenerbahçe have to secure key signings to increase their chances in both domestic and European competitions.
