Fenerbahçe Hit by Striker Crisis After International Break!
The international break has brought unexpected challenges for Fenerbahçe. The yellow-navy blues could face significant shortages in their forward line.
National team player Cenk Tosun, who has reached an agreement and signed an official contract with Japan’s Urawa Red Diamonds, will leave Fenerbahçe on Monday to join his new team.
FRACTURE FOR DZEKO
Meanwhile, Edin Dzeko suffered a broken nose during Bosnia and Herzegovina’s match against Romania and will miss the game against Cyprus. The experienced striker will return to Istanbul on Tuesday, and his condition will become clear after assessments by Fenerbahçe’s medical team. Having recently recovered from a hand injury, Dzeko now faces a new setback, and whether he will be available for Friday’s clash against Bodrum FK will be determined after further examinations.
EN-NESYRI UNABLE TO TRAIN
Youssef En-Nesyri, currently with the Moroccan National Team, will not be able to return to Istanbul before Wednesday evening. Considering travel fatigue and the fact that he will miss training with the team, it seems unlikely that he will be ready for the Bodrum FK match.
TEAM COULD BE LEFT WITHOUT A STRIKER
All these developments increase the likelihood of Fenerbahçe being left without a striker. Following the international break, Jose Mourinho will determine his strategy based on the current situation, and the team’s approach will become clearer accordingly.
