Turkish side ask about Flaco López, but Palmeiras striker says no | OneFootball

Palmeiras’ top scorer this season, striker Flaco López has seen his value rise in the transfer market due to his strong performances and his role in Argentina’s runner-up finish at the World Cup.

Turkish club eyeing Palmeiras striker

NOSSO PALESTRA has learned that, in recent weeks, Fenerbahçe of Turkey contacted the player’s representatives to understand the terms of a potential deal and whether there would be interest in negotiating with the club. Verdão was not approached.

However, despite the approach, Flaco López’s representatives ruled out the possibility of a move to the Turkish club at this time. There is an expectation that clubs from other European markets could target the Argentine striker in this transfer window.

Verdão’s plan

NP reported that Verdão will meet with the player and his representatives in the coming days with the aim of improving his contract due to his current performances and significant development, having become a key part of Abel Ferreira’s team.

Despite the planning and the desire to continue counting on the striker, Palmeiras understands that Flaco López will be highly sought after by European clubs, and keeping him, in the event of offers above €40 million, is considered unlikely by the parties involved.

President Leila Pereira and coach Abel Ferreira have, on several occasions, stated that they do not want to lose any key players from the squad in this transfer window, despite the need for a major sale.

– I have capable players and enough of them in the squad. What I want is not to lose anyone. If we do lose someone, let it be someone we won’t miss. I want to have the squad ready so I have more options for every situation. The rest is for you to write about – Abel Ferreira said last Sunday (26).
