New start at Fatih Karagümrük
© Göztepe
Same Procedure as Last Year: FC Chelsea has again found a buyer for ex-Union David Datro Fofana (22) on Deadline Day in Turkey. The striker is loaned back to a süper-league promoter. At Fatih Karagümrük, it should run better for the Ivorer than at Göztepe.
Fofana completed nine games for Göztepe, in which he scored two goals, but was only on average on average on the pitch before moving a serious knee injury in December. At the end of January, the loan was ended prematurely. Fofana completed the rehab for the blues, in which he still has a long -term contract until 2029.
In January 2023, Chelsea paid 12 million euros for Fofana to the Norwegian club Moldde FK. Borrowing followed to Union Berlin and FC Burnley. For the Köpenickers, he made three goal participations in 17 games in the first half of 2023/24 before Chelsea got him back. Fofana then reaches five scorers in 15 matches at the Clarets. With a market value of 6 million euros, Fofana is by far the most valuable professional in the squad of Fatih Karagümrük, which secured a purchase option that is said to be 8 million euros.
