Reports from Turkey, as per Thisday, have it that the Bees are interested in bolstering their squad and Thomas Frank could use some assistance.

However, Fenerbahce may decide not to sell him right now, but the club landed the player for just €508k from Queens Park Rangers, meaning it would be the ideal opportunity to make a profit.

Napoli increase Osimhen’s transfer fee

Sports Brief earlier reported that Italian giants Napoli have raised Victor Osimhen’s transfer free from €100million to €140million amid interests from English Premier League clubs Manchester United and Arsenal.

The Red Devils are desperately in search of another striker after terminating Cristiano Ronaldo’s contract last December.

The Super Eagles striker, whose estimated market worth is approximately €70 million, joined the Italian team in 2020 for a sum of around €75 million.
