Naci Ünüvar has joined FC Twente on a free transfer from Ajax after his contract with Ajax was terminated following a prematurely ended loan at RCD Espanyol. He has signed a 3.5-year contract with FC Twente. The transfer process was complex as it involved terminating his loan at Espanyol, where an obligation to buy clause was in place that would have been activated had Espanyol remained in the league. However, his performance at Espanyol did not meet expectations, and it was reported that he was unhappy there. Ajax and Espanyol worked together to terminate his loan and contract, paving the way for his free transfer to Twente. Ünüvar was previously earning nearly a million euros annually at Ajax but will now earn significantly less at Twente, having chosen the move for sporting reasons.

Naci Ünüvar, the Dutch winger, has officially departed from the Catalan club Espanyol to return to Ajax, which subsequently transferred him to Twente. His time at Espanyol was brief and largely unsuccessful, as he played only 29 minutes. It was reported that neither Ünüvar nor Espanyol was interested in continuing the loan with a mandatory purchase clause if Espanyol remained in the Primera Division. Ünüvar has already completed his documentation and was observed watching a match between Go Ahead Eagles and Twente, his new team, where he had previously excelled before moving to Barcelona.

Naci Ünüvar is poised to make a return to FC Twente. Currently, he is on loan from Ajax to RCD Espanyol, but due to unsatisfactory performance, the loan period will be ended prematurely as Ünüvar has only played 29 minutes in La Liga. He is expected to sign a three-and-a-half-year contract with Twente. Reports suggest that Ajax is working on terminating his contract, facilitating Ünüvar's move to Twente on a free transfer. Espanyol had an obligatory purchase option in the loan agreement, but it was dependent on the club avoiding relegation, a scenario that appears unlikely as they are currently in the relegation zone.

Naci Ünüvar is currently on loan from Ajax to RCD Espanyol. FC Twente intends to sign him permanently from Ajax. His contract with Ajax, which runs until the summer of 2026, will be terminated, allowing FC Twente to acquire him for a small fee. Ünüvar previously played for FC Twente on loan last season, where he made a notable impact.
