Fenerbahce president Ali Koc has declared his club’s determination to hold onto the star left-back but pressure is mounting with the Premier League giants circling.
Informal talks have been held through intermediaries, a formal offer has not been made yet.
The 24-year-old’s impressive performances for Turkey at Euro 2024 have turned heads across Europe, attracting interest from the Premier League giants.
Despite having two years remaining on his contract, Kadioglu has become a transfer target for several clubs. However, Fenerbahce president Koc has made it clear the club wants to keep the defender beyond the summer window.
Unless a contract extension is signed this summer could be the most lucrative period for Fenerbahce to cash in.
Reports suggest Fenerbahce have already rejected a bid from an unnamed Premier League club.
While Fenerbahce’s stance is clear, the coming weeks will reveal whether their resolve can withstand any significant offers for the talented left-back.
Kadioglu is happy at Fenerbahce but also keen on a move to England, the deciding factor will be down to whether Fenerbahce receive an acceptable offer.
