Arsenal and Manchester United have set their sights on Fenerbahce’s in-form striker, Youssef En-Nesyri, with Turkish media reporting that both clubs are monitoring the Moroccan’s sensational form in 2025.
Since the start of the year, En-Nesyri has been in red-hot shape, scoring nine goals in the league and 14 across all competitions, bringing his season total to an impressive 23 goals and four assists in just 35 appearances. His brace on Sunday helped Fenerbahce to a 3-1 victory over Kasimpasa, keeping pace with rivals Galatasaray at the top of the Turkish Süper Lig.
Notably, Turkish pundit and former referee Ahmet Cakar believes En-Nesyri is currently in better form than the widely touted Victor Osimhen. “It is certain that En-Nesyri is the best striker in the league at the moment,” Cakar stated. Fenerbahce manager José Mourinho also praised En-Nesyri’s contributions, emphasizing his impressive 15 league goals, all without relying on penalties.
Both Arsenal and Man Utd are reportedly eyeing En-Nesyri as a potential No. 9 option, with Manchester United particularly interested in a more affordable alternative to Osimhen, given their financial constraints. Fenerbahce reportedly turned down a €35 million bid for the striker in January, though his market value is still expected to be high.
