Roberto Firmino is the top name on Fenerbahçe's list, with Spanish and Saudi media reporting that the club has initiated contact for the Brazilian striker. Fenerbahçe plans to start official negotiations with Al-Ahli if En-Nesyri leaves. Firmino, who transferred to the Saudi team for free last season, is open to returning to European football and is ready to consider incoming offers.

Fenerbahçe has approached Saudi Pro League club Al-Ahli to loan Roberto Firmino until the end of the season. Firmino is well-known for his remarkable 8 seasons at Liverpool.

Roberto Firmino, a 33-year-old Brazilian forward who is currently playing for Al Ahli in Saudi Arabia, is rumored to be joining Fenerbahçe during the mid-season transfer window. The transfer has been widely reported by Saudi Arabian media, including SBA Sport television, which has stated that Firmino is expected to leave Al Ahli to sign with Fenerbahçe, where Jose Mourinho serves as the manager. Although Firmino's current contract with Al Ahli extends until the end of June 2026, Fenerbahçe remains hopeful about securing a deal by negotiating a reduction in Firmino's considerable salary.

SBA Sport reported that Firmino will leave Al-Ahli and sign with Fenerbahçe. Mourinho gave the green light to the 33-year-old player, who performed excellently for 8 seasons at Liverpool and can play both behind the striker and up front. Branco is expected to meet with Firmino and Al-Ahli officials in Saudi Arabia. The primary objective is to loan the player until the end of the season.
