Fenerbahce begin talks to sign Mohamed Elyounoussi

Southampton winger Mohamed Elyounoussi is the subject of interest from Turkish side Fenerbahce, according to Turkish outlet Fanatk, cited by Sport Witness.

The reports claim that Fenerbahce’s sporting director Damien Comolli has begun talks with the Saints to sign the 24-year-old this summer.

It is also claimed that Fenerbahce have already made an offer to sign the Norwegian with a loan move their preference.

This is due to the side’s bleak financial position but will need to convince Saints that this is the right move for both parties.

Elyounoussi has been very disappointing since signing for £16million last summer, having made 19 appearances in all competitions and failing to provide a single goal or assist.

The attacker may need a move to get back to his best and a stint in the Turkish Super Lig could be what he needs to regain his confidence.

There are many questions to be answered this summer for the Saints and the Elyounoussi proposition was one bought up in our 10 questions piece last month.
