According to consistent reports, the Turkish midfield talent Yunus Emre Konak is about to move to the English Premier League: The transfer of the U21 international from Süper Lig club Sivasspor to FC Brentford will be officially completed on the youngster’s 18th birthday next week, it is said . According to the “DHA” news agency, the “Bees” are transferring around 5 million euros in transfer fees to the tenth place team.
The homegrown player from Batman with a contract until 2026 only made the jump to the first team last summer and was then in the starting line-up in all of Sivasspor’s league games. The starting market value, estimated at 50,000 euros, shot up within a very short time, which now makes the right-footer the most valuable Turkish professional in his age group behind Kasimpasa’s Yasin Özcan (17) (statistics).

Konak, who made no secret of his dream of wanting to play in a top European league in a “DHA” interview in August, is considered physically very advanced for his age. Speed and game overview are also attributes that his coach Bülent Uygun recently highlighted positively in view of the youngster’s qualities. “The most talented footballer I have seen in Turkey in 30 years,” said the Sivasspor coach at “Leg sports“. In addition to Brentford, according to reports from England, several European clubs had vied for the 17-year-old’s services.
No winter transfer: Brentford coach Frank wants Toney “here for a long time”
Contrary to recent speculation, “Bees” striker Ivan Toney (27), who was banned until mid-January due to his violations of betting rules, is not for sale in the current winter transfer window, coach Thomas Frank confirmed. “He’s a Brentford player and he’s here. Obviously we’re missing a few attacking players, so I don’t see why we should sell him. I would love to have it here for a long time and it would have to be an incredible price to sell it. But I assume that he will be here on February 1st, so I’m not worried,” the Dane is quoted by the newspaper “Times“quoted.
In addition to Saman Ghoddos (30) and Yoane Wissa (27), who were assigned to the national team, the coach also has to do without Bryan Mbeumo (24) and ex-Freiburg player Kevin Schade (22) in attack due to injuries. Toney (contract until 2025), who was the London club’s top scorer last season with 24 goals in 33 league games, had increased his market value to 50 million euros by the time he was banned in May, the highest valuation of his career to date – most recently this had been significantly reduced again (for statistics).
