Milan’s Rade Krunic just a step away from joining Fenerbahce

Turkish outfits Fenerbahce are just a few hours away from officially materialising the transfer of Rade Krunic from Milan.

According to a report by Alfredo Pedulla, Fenerbahce contacted Milan frequently in the last few days to land Rade Krunic as soon as possible. After signing former Juventus man Leonardo Bonucci from Union Berlin, the Turkish side shifted its focus towards the 30-year-old. 

The Istanbul-based club are now working to bring the transfer fee for the midfielder to €5-€5.5 million and the Rossoneri are expected to meet the conditions. It is only a matter of a few hours before both clubs announce the deal as personal terms are believed to have been agreed upon before the negotiations started. 

The Bosnian had a few other offers on the table but he always favoured the transfer to Fenerbahce since they lodged an interest in him last summer. 

Krunic spent five seasons at Milan after joining from Empoli in the summer of 2019.
