Marco Asensio leaves PSG and signs for Fenerbahçe | OneFootball

The Spanish forward Marco Asensio, no longer in coach Luis Enrique’s plans, has left Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) and signed with Fenerbahçe, the two clubs announced this Monday.

“The experienced 29-year-old player has signed a three-year contract with an option for a one-year extension,” announced the Istanbul team, which qualified for the Europa League after being eliminated in the Champions League playoff.

Asensio was under contract with PSG until June 2026 and, in February, was loaned to Aston Villa, where he scored eight goals in 21 matches.

The Spaniard, whose best spell was at Real Madrid (2014-2023), will begin a new chapter in Turkey, where among his new teammates will be another former PSG player, Slovak defender Milan Skriniar.

In addition to Asensio, Fenerbahçe also announced this Monday the signing of forward Kerem Akturkoglu, who was at Benfica and scored the goal that knocked the Turks out of the Champions League.

According to the local press, the club is also expected to announce the arrival of Brazilian goalkeeper Ederson from Manchester City.

Fenerbahçe, which last Friday announced the dismissal of Portuguese coach José Mourinho, is experiencing the longest title drought in its history, having not won the Turkish Championship since 2014.
