OL will have to improve the quality of their defense during this transfer window. This includes recruiting full-backs who are good offensively and defensively. According to the Turkish press, the Rhone club is interested in Mert Muldur.
The Euro is a great way to discover unknown players or to rediscover forgotten players from the 5 major European championships. This is the case of Mert Muldur in particular. The Fenerbahçe right-back had an interesting start to the tournament with Turkey, which was capped with a superb goal against Georgia. Going up front, he fired a superb volley into the Georgian top corner. Enough to make a good impression on Lyon recruiters, looking for high-performance full-backs for next season.
Mert Muldur at Fenerbahçe à l’OL ?
According to information from Turkish sports media KramponSport, OL are interested in Mert Muldur’s profile. The 25-year-old is no stranger to the big 5 championships. Born and trained in Austria, at Rapid Vienna more precisely, he broke out in Serie A with Sassuolo. He worked alongside Roberto de Zerbi as a coach there. After 4 years in Italy, he left for Fenerbahçe for only 3 million euros last summer.
In a club with 99 points in the league but beaten by Galatasaray in the title race, he retained substitute status all year. His place in the Turkish eleven in this Euro has put him back in the spotlight. OL could make a good financial deal with a lower-cost transfer. It would also be an interesting sports bet. Muldur is a defensively solid right-back, having started in central defense in Austria. Like his goal against Georgia, he is also capable of making sharp and decisive climbs. In the Turkish championship, he scored a goal and delivered 4 assists with his reduced playing time. It remains to be seen what OL will offer Fenerbahçe to acquire the player’s services.
