A tweet from transfer expert Fabrizio Romano claims that Fred’s transfer to Fenerbahce from Manchester United has been finalized.
As soon as the player travels, a medical checkup will be scheduled. The crucial point in this situation is that Fenerbahce and Fred have fully agreed upon all personal terms.
Romano tweeted just a few hours ago that the Turkish team had made an offer to sign the Brazil international for about €15 million. Once United received the payment they desired for their asset, it seems like this case progressed rapidly.
The Red Devils paid £52 million during a summer transfer window five years ago to acquire Fred from Shakhtar Donetsk.
When Jose Mourinho resigned and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer assumed control in the midst of the 2018–19 season, the 30-year-old was one of the regular starters.
After Erik ten Hag joined the team last summer, the midfielder’s playing time began to fluctuate a little bit more. The arrival of Casemiro, a fellow countryman, did not improve the situation either.
Fred’s tenure as a player for United will be remembered in a number of different ways, assuming all goes as planned and he registers with Fenerbahce soon.
There is no doubt that the player wanted to give everything he had for the team every time he stepped onto the pitch. The issue was that he had some limitations on his game. Once such information is learned while you are on a top team, there is no turning back.
One would assume that ten Hag instantly reduced his playing time from the usual level after realizing that drawback.
However, we wish the athlete the best and hope that he enjoys his time in Turkey.
