Colombian John Duran, born in 2003, was loaned to Fenerbahce in Turkiye, where Jose Mourinho is at the helm. Fenerbahce said on the 7th (Korea time) "Duran joined on a one-year loan after both the club and the players reached an agreement."I wish Duran a successful season in a striped uniform." he announced.
Duran made a surprise transfer from Aston Villa in the English Premier League (EPL) to Al Nasr, Saudi Arabia, where Cristiano Ronaldo is located. He scored 12 goals in 18 appearances for al-Nasr.
But al-Nasr doesn't seem to be full of castles. After six months, he will leave Al Nasr and spend a season on loan at Fenerbahce.
Duran moved to Aston Villa from the Chicago Fire of Major League Soccer (MLS) in January 2023. At that time, the transfer fee was only 18 million pounds (about 33.5 billion won).
He scored 20 goals in 78 appearances during his two years at Aston Villa. However, 61 games were substitutes. Duran failed to replace England native Ollie Watkins in the selection race.
Al-Nasr paid a whopping £71 million to hold Duran's hand. Duran helped Al-Nasr finish third in the Saudi professional league in the first season, but he also could not be free from 'tears of no relation'.
Ronaldo renewed his two-year contract with Al Nasr last month and called for the team to rebuild. 'Uncooked'Duran was shot 'Duran'Duran'Duran. Fenerbahce finished second in the Turkiye League last season.
Duran is a "gift-like loan signing" for Mourinho. He played 17 A matches for Colombia and scored three goals.
