Milan Reject Fenerbahce Loan Offer for Nkunku as Player Prefers to Stay

Milan are insisting on a permanent deal close to €35 million rather than a loan with an option.

Overview

  • Fenerbahce have opened talks to sign Christopher Nkunku, with coach Domenico Tedesco contacting his former RB Leipzig forward about a reunion.
  • Milan turned down a loan-with-option proposal and are holding out for a permanent sale near their €35 million valuation, with no matching bid so far.
  • Nkunku is reported to be inclined to remain at Milan after a recent brace and wants to build on improved form rather than move mid-season.
  • Juventus have explored the situation and the player’s agent has fielded lucrative Saudi offers, though Nkunku is not keen on a move to the Saudi league.
  • TalkSPORT reports an agreement in principle for Milan to take Niclas Fullkrug on loan from West Ham, a move that could further squeeze Nkunku’s minutes if completed.
