Intrigue Around Eldor Shomurodov’s Transfer: “Basaksehir” Close to the Finish

The summer transfer window in the European football market has once again entered its hottest phase, and the name of Uzbekistan’s star Eldor Shomurodov is once again at the center. After the end of the season, various assumptions about Shomurodov’s future in “Roma” appeared — in recent weeks, these reports have become even more frequent. It was reported that the forward, who played at a high level in Serie A and brought “Roma” to the European cups, received offers from various countries, including the USA, France, Turkey, and Italy itself.

Especially in recent days, the intrigue around his future has intensified even more — first it was written about the competition from “Cremonese”, then between Turkey’s “Basaksehir” and France’s “Rennes”. But according to the latest information, “Basaksehir” is now the favorite in the desired transfer. According to Turkish insider Salim Manav, who gave information to the reputable agency Ajansspor, the Istanbul club has fully agreed with “Roma” in negotiations, and the player himself also expressed his consent to move to the new team.

According to Arif Can Yildiz, “Basaksehir” relies on Shomurodov to strengthen the attack and is only one step away from officially getting him from “Roma”. About this process, reports are regularly published in Italy as well — in particular, such major sports sites as laroma24.it and siamolaroma.it regularly inform that the transfer is at the final stage and a positive result is expected.


Italian media also note that major changes may take place at “Roma” following this transfer. After the appointment of Gian Piero Gasperini as head coach, sporting director Federico Massara is actively working in the transfer market to bring in a new main striker. In the meantime, the departure of Abraham to “Besiktas” and the expected departure of Shomurodov have made the question of who will replace these forwards a key one for the club's management.

In short, Eldor Shomurodov’s transfer has become one of the most anticipated and hotly discussed processes in Europe. Some sources are spreading various reports, and the situation is constantly changing — so, while waiting for official information, in the coming days we will see the end of this intrigue. For now, one thing is clear: Eldor Shomurodov’s new club will undoubtedly arouse great interest among football fans.

What do you think, will Shomurodov be able to raise his game to a new level in Turkey, or is the option to stay at “Roma” still preserved? Soon, the answer to this question will become clear! Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
