Rumour • Author: Mehmet Pozam • Friday, July 23, 2010
In today's press scan, news reports from the Turkish and International press linking Fenerbahçe with transfer moves for Robinho, Asamoah Gyan, Guillaume Hoarau and others. Please note that Fenerbahçe Worldwide does not confirm any of the following transfer rumours.
The following transfer rumours were linked in Turkish and International media, although each is pure speculation unless the club issues an official statement. We do not hold any of the rumours to be truth.
Fenerbahçe Worldwide will publish one article of transfer rumours per day (as long as there is demand), and the list will be updated throughout the day as more are reported. Please check the article periodically for updates.
Robinho (Manchester City / Santos)
Striker / Winger - 26 years old
Sabah
Turkish daily Sabah writes that Robinho is 'not a dream' for Fenerbahçe and that the Yellow Canaries are trying hard to land the 26-year-old Brazilian superstar. Despite being previously denied by the club management, rumours are that Fenerbahçe are on the verge of transferring a world-class superstar and supposedly this could be Robinho. UPDATE: The club management issued an official statement on Friday afternoon, denying interest in Robinho. The club rejected the above press reports and claimed they have no intentions of transferring the 26-year-old Brazilian striker.
Asamoah Gyan (Rennes)
Striker - 24 years old
Milliyet
Milliyet claims that Fenerbahçe are keen on finalizing a deal for Rennes striker Asamoah Gyan. However the 24-year-old Ghanian international is said to have also attracted offers from many European clubs including sides from the Premier League. The Yellow Canaries reportedly want to bring Asamoah Gyan to Kadıköy at the latest for the UEFA Champions League play-off round.
Guillaume Hoarau (Paris Saint-Germain)
Striker - 26 years old
Sabah, Le Parisien
Once again Turkish sources cite Le Parisien's report that Fenerbahçe are keeping tabs on Paris Saint-Germain striker Guillaume Hoarau. The 26-year-old Frenchman is considered to be Fenerbahçe's Plan B, if the club is not successful in bringing in Asamoah Gyan. The tall forward (1.92 m / 6 ft 3) who bagged only six goals in 22 league fixtures for Les Parisiens last season is also said to have attracted Schalke 04's interest. PSG coach Antoine Kombouaré is also reluctant to let Hoarau go, according to French sources.
Juventus attacking midfielder Diego, Olympique Lyonnais striker Bafétimbi Gomis and VfL Wolfsburg striker Grafite have also been linked with Fenerbahçe.
Disclaimer: Fenerbahçe Worldwide does not confirm any of the above rumours or state that they are anything else than mere speculation. Please wait for official announcements from the club management.

He would tear the TSL teams defens apart!
i hate player like that.. he isnt a good proffesional.. cause manchester city wouldn't loan hem to santos if he was...
!!!I want a striker who is hungry for succes!!!!
A 4 year deal with Robinho so we can sell him after next world cup!
After he moves to City, he does the best he can in his first season yet the fans don't appreciate it.
He has gone through a lot of crap as a footballer.
I think he would love it in Fener especilly with Alex Baroni and A.Santos

The issue with Man City is that the team has so much much that they bought too many chefs and not enough cooks. Lots of big names that don't gel well together.
(note: one of the main reasons why bernd schuster was fired @ real was because he said after a el clasico that real madrid can never beat this barcelona, barcelona plays too good... and after that barcelona won all the cups.. and he was right.. real didnt beat barcelona since he said that)
He has a really strong squad and yeah I agree, I hope they are successful in the euroleague because they have a squad that can easily win it.
I wish Besiktas the best in Europa League also. But hope they fail big time against us in the superlig :P
EDIT: Looks like Robinho ain't happening after all: http://www.superfb.com/haber/39779/robinho-aciklamasi/?ref=ABM1
they just said on One HD in australia that theyre covering a deal.
Yes, they were actually talking about Fenerbahce and Robinho.
all these sites like superFB are pure bulldust.
the only site that is official is this site and fenerbahce.org
On sports tonight or one of those football programs??
many teams are going for robinho thats why theyre covering the topic and apparently fenerbahce are the lead "OFFERERS", as in we are willing to pay more then any other team.
Used google translate and I think this is the superstar Aziz talked about. This would be the greatest transfer in superlig.
Thats what you call a goal scorer :)
read that article.
Your obviously wrong.
He is very close to coming.
The minute you used Turkish news the deal is fake...

That announcement is just to rule off what Sabah Gazetesi said.
Not robinho.
They are in talks and they are CLOSE to an agreement.
Robinho hasnt been denied at all.
They haven't even tried..
I always follow this site also, but antu's forums is also something you guys should look at. (just a thought)
Couse if besiktas brings Guti and Raul the shocked Superlig more then we will do if we dont bring robinho
Alex - 43 appearances, 21 goals [.49 goals/app]
Guiza - 46 appearances, 18 goals [.39 goals/app]
