August 12th According to the Ass, Fenerbahce is seeking to acquire Portuguese sports forward Geni Katamo and Benfica forward Akturkogru.

Catamo, 24, is a Mozambique striker. He is a left-footed player and can compete with the left and right winger positions. Catamo made 48 appearances in Portugal Sports last season, scoring 7 goals and assisting 5 times. Fenerbahce coach Mourinho is very interested in Catamo and believes that he can not only participate in the offense, but also actively participate in the team's defense, so Mourinho hopes Fenerbahce club will sign him.

According to Le As, Portugal Sports' asking price for Catamo is 30 million euros, and Fenerbahce hopes to negotiate a price reduction and pay in installments. In addition, Liverpool also intends to introduce Catamo in January this year, but Liverpool failed to reach a transfer agreement with Portugal Sports at that time, and Catamo regretfully failed to realize his wish to play in the Premier League.

In addition, Mourinho also talked about another Portuguese super striker - Benfica's Akturkogru at a press conference before the Champions League qualifiers. Mourinho said: "Of course I know this player. I know very well about the Portuguese Super League. I often watch the Portuguese Super League when I rest. But as I said, he is still a Benfica player now."

Fenerbahce has already offered Akturkogru 22.5 million euros, plus a prize of 3 million. But Benfica is currently participating in the third round of the Champions League qualifiers, and Benfica does not want to sell any players before advancing to the Champions League.

In addition to Fenerbahce, Besiktas also had transfer scandals with Akturkogru. Besiktas Club Chairman Seldar Adal said: "Previously, when we were in the transfer negotiations with Benfica for Kokku, we also talked about Akturkoglu. But my impression is that Benfica does not want him to leave the team this season, and they suffered injuries in that position. We no longer negotiate with Benfica because they said they need Akturkoglu very much. Benfica already knows that if Akturkoglu comes to Türkiye, he wants to play with us."
