Turkey giants Fenerbahçe will have to pay a whopping 20 million pounds to secure the services of Nigerian International, Emmanuel Emenike for Spartak Moscow. Spartak Moscow CEO, Roman Ashkabadze while addressing the interest of Fenerbahçe recently said the club would have to break a bank if they must land the player, as his value had risen.
“There are only two ways this transfer will go ahead, firstly his minimum fee release clause will have to be activated. The other option is to agree a price close to his release clause fee,” Ashkabadze said.
Though he didn’t reveal how much was the release clause in Emenike’s contract, it was reported to be about 45 million pounds. He also disclosed the Turkish giants were not the only club interested in the Nigeria striker.
“There is a growing interest in Emenike, but not just from Fenerbahçe,” Ashkabadze said. ”It’s natural that Emenike wants a move to Fenerbahçe, everybody has their own interests. West Ham had also been linked with the Nigeria star recently in the Russian press.
Fenerbahçe were in talks with Emenike and Oscar Cardozo. ’The Yellow Canaries’ released an official statement on the Istanbul Stock Exchange, confirming that negotiations were underway. Fenerbahçe signed Emenike from Karabükspor for €9 million in 2011, but the Nigeria international was sold to Spartak for €10 million without playing a single game for them.
Emenike still had three years left on his contract with Spartak and had scored two goals in three games this season.
