Could Newcastle United striker Aleksandar Mitrovic be on his way to Fenerbahce?
Aleksandar Mitrovic joined Newcastle United in the summer of 2015 amid hype and expectation.
As reported by BBC Sport, the Magpies paid Anderlecht a transfer fee of £13 million in order to secure the services of the striker.
The Serbia international signed a five-year contract with Newcastle and was expected to be a hit at St. James’ Park.
The youngster had scored 36 league goals in his two years in Belgium and was supposed to be a long-term success for the Magpies, who were then being managed by Steve McClaren.
Things, though, have not gone according to plan. The 22-year-old striker scored nine goals and created 30 chances in 34 Premier League appearances during the 2015-16 campaign; the youngster scored four goals and provided six assists in 25 Championship matches last season.
Mitrovic has not been a success at Newcastle, and it seems that the Magpies are ready to part company with the Serbian.
According to Fanatik, the striker has been offered to Turkish club Fenerbahce through a mediator, and that the Premier League outfit want €15 million (£13.12m) for him.
Fenerbahce, though, as reported in Fanatik, are willing to sign Mitrovic only on a loan deal. However, one should not be surprised if the two clubs do eventually come to an agreement over the former Partizan youngster.
