Fenerbahçe line up €12 million loan bid for Ayari ahead of January

Brighton & Hove Albion’s Swedish international midfielder Yasin Ayari is valued at around €12 million and remains under contract at the Amex Stadium until 2028, yet Fenerbahçe have placed him at the top of their target list ahead of the January transfer window to strengthen their central rotation.

Initial loan proposal valued at €12 million

The Yellow Canaries’ technical committee has singled out the 22‑year‑old box‑to‑box midfielder as the ideal profile to boost physical dynamism, press resistance and central ball progression in the Süper Lig title race.

According to Fotomac, Fenerbahçe are preparing an initial loan offer that includes an option to buy, and plan to submit a formal approach to Brighton once the winter window opens.

Ayari’s versatility across central midfield, his tactical discipline and his experience in the high‑tempo Premier League are cited as key attributes that fit the club’s long‑term midfield strategy.

The Istanbul side hopes to lure the Swedish playmaker with the promise of regular starting minutes and guaranteed European football, aiming to slot him into their central engine room for the second half of the campaign.

The addition would bolster Fenerbahçe’s central rotation as they pursue the Süper Lig title.
