You never know with Jose Mourinho how long he will stay at a club, but if the Portuguese stays as Fenerbahce coach, he will bring in players who will give him an advantage against Galatasaray, who have proven too strong this season with a Victor Osimhen at the top. The reinforcements will also stop troublesome Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Besiktas. The loss against the Norwegian “jypling” hurt.
Fenerbahce need a striker who can deliver in Turkish football and out in Europe, Besiktas the same. When Solskjaer was asked at a press conference by the Besiktas vice-president which player he wanted, the Norwegian replied with a sly smile: “Erling Haaland”.

Of course, just wishful thinking, but still a sign that “an indisputable profile” will be picked up before next season. Not long after, Turkish media reported Besiktas were looking at the possibility of signing Alexander Sørloth on loan from Atletico Madrid.
Mourinho also needs an “indisputable profile” at the top, according to The Mirror, Fenerbahce see the opportunity to bring Rasmus Hojlund to the Süper Lig. The Dane has been announced to be on his way away from Manchester United this summer. United need sales revenue for the 22-year-old to finance the right reinforcements, but if United do not get the bid they need, a rental could be an option. The Süper Lig could be a suitable league for Hojlund to regain his scoring form and confidence in front of the opponents’ goal.
