Bombshell! After Benfica snub, Marco Silva regular agrees Luz exit | OneFootball

Vangelis Pavlidis has emerged on Fenerbahçe’s radar. The Istanbul club is looking to strengthen its attack, and the Turks sent a €40 million bid for the Greek forward, an offer that was rejected by Benfica. However, the Greek’s response was different.

According to Turkish journalist Yağız Sabuncuoğlu, Pavlidis said “yes” to the club from the Turkish capital. The Greece international accepted the contract offer put on the table, and now Fenerbahçe only need to convince Benfica to let their prolific scorer go.

The same journalist also stated that Arturo Canales, Pavlidis’ agent, met with the Lisbon club this Tuesday, and that the board led by Rui Costa will only consider selling Pavlidis for an offer above €50 million.

Yağız Sabuncuoğlu also reported that the Greek striker wants to leave Benfica to wear the Fenerbahçe shirt and that the Eagles have already made contact for Lucas Stassin, Saint-Étienne’s centre-forward, in order to prepare for a possible departure of Pavlidis.

Meanwhile, the national press reported that the Eagles had rejected an initial offer from Fenerbahçe worth a fixed €40 million. Despite the tempting figures, Vangelis Pavlidis is seen as a key player for Marco Silva.
