Istanbul, Turkey – In a significant move for the 2023-2024 football season, Fenerbahçe is on the brink of securing the transfer of Anderson Talisca from Al Nassr. The Turkish club has been proactive in their transfer market strategy, with the Brazilian midfielder at the heart of their recruitment drive.
Born in 1993, Talisca’s career trajectory has seen him rise through the ranks from Bahia to notable stints at Benfica and Beşiktaş, where he left a lasting impression on the Turkish football scene. Known for his robust physique, deadly shooting prowess, and tactical acumen, Talisca is expected to bring a new dimension to Fenerbahçe’s gameplay.
According to sources close to the deal, negotiations are set to conclude between January 13 and February 11, with Fenerbahçe poised to pay Al Nassr approximately 5 million euros for the transfer. However, the financial intricacies of the deal, particularly Talisca’s hefty annual salary of 12 million euros, have been a point of contention. Fenerbahçe has proposed to shoulder half of his salary for the remainder of the current season, with Al Nassr agreeing to cover the other half, leading to a financial benefit of around 11 million euros for Fenerbahçe from this transaction.
Looking forward, discussions are underway to agree on a new salary for Talisca, with Fenerbahçe offering 7 million euros per annum, which would rank among the highest in his career. His arrival is not only expected to enhance the team’s on-field performance but also to sharpen Fenerbahçe’s competitive edge in the Süper Lig.
As the transfer nears its finalization, fans of Fenerbahçe are eagerly anticipating Talisca’s official unveiling, marking another chapter in the club’s storied history.
