Per the source, the forward has been transfer listed but he is not available on loan.
Fenerbahce are set for talks with Perez’s agent but if the latest report does turn out to be true it could force the club into pulling out of the deal.
The Yellow Canaries want Perez on a temporary move next season.
Fenerbahce are not in a financial position to sign Perez on a permanent deal this window.
The club face Financial Fair Play (FFP) pressure and a €14 million transfer would push them over their budget.
The Istanbul giants bitter rivals Galatasaray did not comply with FFP last summer and ended up being suspended from European competition for one season.
