Will Faizullaev follow Shomurodov to Turkey?

In recent days, news from the Turkish Super League has been at the center of attention for Uzbek football fans. In particular, "Istanbul Basaksehir" club is negotiating with "Roma" to add the leading striker of our national team, Eldor Shomurodov, to their squad.

According to the information, club representatives are on the verge of agreeing terms with the team in Rome. If everything is completed successfully, Eldor will sign a contract with "Istanbul Basaksehir" until 2028. This is expected to be a new chapter for the Uzbek star’s career in Turkey.

At the same time, famous Turkish journalist Ertan Suzgun revealed another interesting piece of news. According to him, "Istanbul Basaksehir" has reached an important stage in negotiations to transfer another Uzbek footballer — midfielder Abbosbek Faizullaev.

Previously, the same journalist reported that "Istanbul" officially contacted Russia’s CSKA club regarding Faizullaev. Now the probability of successful completion of the talks is increasing. There is no official information yet about the duration of the proposed contract, but reliable sources emphasize that this agreement is becoming very serious.

It is known that Abbosbek Faizullaev is currently successfully playing for one of the top teams in the Russian Premier League — CSKA. His current contract is valid until the summer of 2026. According to the German portal Transfermarkt, Faizullaev’s market value is estimated at 8 million euros.

His technical skills, universal playing style, and intelligent actions on the field have attracted the attention of not only CSKA’s coaches but also those of other clubs.

If this transfer happens, the Turkish Super League will become a new proving ground for Abbosbek Faizullaev. The pace of play and the pressure from fans in this league will undoubtedly bring him new experiences. In addition, it is possible that he will have the opportunity to play in the same team as Eldor Shomurodov.

In turn, the interest and trust of "Istanbul Basaksehir" in Uzbek footballers is further evidence of the recognition of our players abroad.
