Neil El Aynaoui is among the profiles being considered by Fenerbahçe to strengthen its midfield during this summer transfer window. According to several Turkish media outlets, the Istanbul club is looking to reshape its midfield and sees the Moroccan international from AS Roma as a credible option in the event of N’Golo Kanté’s departure, whose salary weighs heavily on the club’s finances.
At 25 years old, Neil El Aynaoui is contracted to AS Roma until 2030 after joining from RC Lens in the summer of 2025. Capable of playing as a box-to-box midfielder, defensive midfielder, or in an attacking role, the Atlas Lion is valued for his versatility and technical quality. His market value is currently estimated at 23 million euros by Transfermarkt.
However, no agreement or advanced negotiations have been confirmed between the two clubs. In recent weeks, Neil El Aynaoui has also been linked to several European teams, particularly in the Premier League, while his future continues to fuel speculation.
