Summary
Fenerbahce faces a FIFA transfer embargo stemming from a payment dispute over En-Nesyri, the striker who was also tracked by Juventus last winter. The Turkish club says a contractual instalment fell due on 30 April 2026 and that its new board has now paid the outstanding sum, but FIFA has registered the sanction across three transfer windows pending completion of administrative procedures.
The club has promised to settle any further obligations by Monday and expects the restriction to be lifted once formalities are concluded. The issue will also be addressed at Fenerbahce's general assembly on 27 September, where management will present accounts and outstanding financial commitments to shareholders.
