Benfica, beware! Turkish press reveals Fenerbahçe's Pavlidis offer | OneFootball

It is already known that Fenerbahçe submitted a €40 million offer to sign Vangelis Pavlidis. The Istanbul club’s proposal reached Benfica’s SAD in recent days, but the Eagles were quick to reject the multi-million plan. However, the Turks are set to raise their bid for the Greek player.

According to the Turkish newspaper "Fanatik", Fenerbahçe will move forward with an offer of €50 million plus bonuses. However, the negotiation will not be easy, as Rui Costa and Marco Silva want to keep the Hellenic striker at all costs and will only consider negotiating for figures around €70 million.

It should be remembered that Pavlidis is under contract with Benfica until 2029 and has a €100 million release clause. Despite the signing of Jhon Durán, coach Marco Silva considers the Greek forward indispensable and asked the SAD to try to keep him at all costs.

During the month of June, Besiktas was the first Turkish club to make a move for the 27-year-old player and showed willingness to go up to €35 million, a sum that was likewise far from tempting Benfica.
