Mourinho is set to win the race for striker linked with Tottenham – Journalist
According to journalist Rudy Galetti, Sevilla’s Youssef En-Nesyri, who has been heavily linked with a move to Tottenham, is now on his way to Fenerbahce.
Tottenham were linked with Youssef En-Nesyri
En-Nesyri has emerged as one of the most prolific marksmen in La Liga over the last two seasons, with the striker netting 20 goals across all competitions in 2023-24.
A whole host of outlets have reported throughout the summer that Sevilla are ready to cash in on the 27-year-old and that Tottenham were circling.
This includes an update by Diario de Sevilla last month, which suggested that Sevilla want a quick sale of En-Nesyri due to their current financial situation and are hoping to get around €30m (£25.5m) for the striker.
Meanwhile, other publications claimed that Spurs were favourites to land the Moroccan international and that they were considering making an offer for him (El Mira).
Fenerbache set to win the race for En-Nesyri?
However, Galatti has now taken to social media to state that En Nesyri has now reached a verbal agreement with Fenerbache and is on his way to Turkey.
The journalist says that the striker will now have a medical with the Istanbul club and adds that Jose Mourinho was key in convincing the player to make the move to Sukru Saracoglu Stadium.
Spurs Web Opinion
Despite all the speculation emerging from Spain, there was no suggestion in the British press that En-Nesyri was being seriously considered by Tottenham.
The fact that he has gone to Turkey suggests that he did not receive much interest from the Premier League.
