Fenerbahçe, under the guidance of José Mourinho, approached Asensio at the beginning of June. |
According to The Athletic , Asensio has accepted Fenerbahce's offer, and the deal is expected to be completed this week, as the player will fly to the Turkish club for a medical . Asensio will earn 7 million euros a year (about £135,000 a week) at his new club, the same as he currently earns at PSG.
Aston Villa do not have the financial resources to pay Asensio such a large salary, causing negotiations to fall into a deadlock. Two months ago, Villa seemed to have secured the signature of the Spanish striker. Aston Villa's loan deal with Paris Saint-Germain for Asensio expires in May, and the English club has also reached an agreement to buy the player for a transfer fee of around 25 million euros.
However, the financial pressure of failing to qualify for next season's Champions League has prevented Villa from speeding up the deal, creating an opportunity for Fenerbahce. Jose Mourinho's side finished second in the Turkish Super Lig last season, marking the fourth consecutive year they have finished second in the league.
Therefore, Fenerbahce's board of directors is eager to increase firepower to compete for the title, especially in the context that Galatasaray has just paid Sane a salary of more than 350,000 pounds/week, which is extremely high compared to the general level of the Turkish league.
Before Asensio, Fenerbahce completed the signing of Jhon Duran on a season-long loan from Al Nassr. The Turkish club also reached a personal agreement with Leandro Trossard and are only waiting to negotiate a transfer fee with Arsenal.
