Financial dispute hampers Fenerbahçe and Al-Hilal negotiations over Yusuf Akçiçek
Al-Hilal and Fenerbahçe's negotiations have hit a new snag over financial disagreements regarding the loan transfer of defender Yusuf Akçiçek during the summer transfer window.
Turkish newspaper 'Fanatik' reports that the crux of the disagreement revolves around the player's salary, with Fenerbahçe wanting to cover only half of his dues for the duration of the loan.
In contrast, Al-Hilal is striving to reach a different financial arrangement that ensures the proper determination of obligations between the two clubs before giving final approval for the young defender's transfer.
Negotiations continue between the two parties despite not reaching an agreement yet, amid fears that the deal could fail if the financial dispute remains unresolved in the final days of the transfer window.
Fenerbahçe have moved to re-sign Yusuf Akçiçek after his departure, proposing to loan him from Al-Hilal, but the player's salary has become a major obstacle to completing the deal.
The deal is expected to see crucial developments in the coming hours as negotiations continue between Al-Hilal and Fenerbahçe, hoping to overcome the disagreement and reach an agreement regarding Yusuf Akçiçek's future.
