Fenerbahçe: Fred Exit & Olympiacos’ Salary Issues

Received a verbal offer

While the transfer of Mattéo Guendouzi to Fenerbahçe became official, the name of French midfielder N’Golo Kanté also started to come up. In the shadow of all these developments, it was suggested that Fred, the experienced midfielder of the yellow-dark blue team, could leave the team. It was stated that Olympiacos, one of the Greek Super League 1 teams, showed interest in the Brazilian football player, and the biggest obstacle to the transfer was his high salary.

According to the news of journalist Sercan Hamzaoğlu, Olympiacos made a verbal offer to Fred. However, it was stated that the Greek representative’s salary scale did not meet Fred’s earnings in Fenerbahçe. It was emphasized that the experienced football player received an annual net salary of 4.3 million euros and a bonus of 700 thousand euros, and that the number of clubs that could provide these figures was quite limited. It was reported that the transfer could take place if Fred reduces his salary.

Fred, who was transferred to Fenerbahçe from Manchester United for a transfer fee of 9.74 million euros in 2023, performed with 9 goals and 18 assists in 104 matches in the yellow-dark blue jersey. It is said that the midfielder, who has a contract until 2027, may lose his place in the squad after a new midfield transfer. Fred, who was previously transferred from Internacional to Shakhtar Donetsk for 15 million euros and then to Manchester United for a transfer fee of 59 million euros in 2018, played for the Brazilian National Team 32 times.
