Fenerbahce table €25 million bid for Lazio midfielder Mateo Guendouzi

Fenerbahce have submitted a €25 million offer to Lazio for midfielder Matteo Guendouzi, according to TuttoMercatoWeb.

The Frenchman has already given his approval to a move to Istanbul, leaving the ball in Lazio’s court as to whether to sanction a sale midway through the season.

Guendouzi joined his current employers on a permanent deal from Olympique Marseille in 2024 following an initial loan spell.

He has since established himself as a key player, starting 51 of 55 possible league matches.

However, despite his contract running until 2028, Guendouzi could be set for a move away with several clubs reportedly circling.

Fenerbahce are hoping to position themselves at the front of the queue as they aim to ramp up their squad to compete with city rivals Galatasaray for the Super Lig title.

If Lazio part ways with Guendouzi, they could accelerate their interest in Ruben Loftus-Cheek, having already opened talks with AC Milan.

Lazio currently face an uphill task to qualify for Europe this term, sitting eighth in the Serie A table with 24 points, six behind sixth-place Como.  

A busy winter transfer window is expected at the Stadio Olimpico, with Lazio already close to finalising the sale of Valentin Castellanos to West Ham United for around €30 million.

Having won just one of their last five league matches, Maurizio Sarri’s men face defending champions Napoli on Sunday afternoon in their first outing of 2026.
