The financial crisis in the Chinese Super League is spreading further, and more and more clubs are already financially tight. According to reports from a number of Turkish media, Turkish Super League giants Fenerbahce have set their sights on Shenzhen's foreign aid and Ghanaian star Achimpen. The report pointed out that Achimpen is also seeking to leave China because of the club's salary arrears, and the two sides are expected to "hit it off".
Turkish media said Fenerbahce wanted to add Achimpen to their squad next season because the player could play any position on the left, which intrigued Fenerbahce. If the transfer finally happens, it will be after the transfer window opens this summer, and in the months between, there will be enough time for Fenerbahce and Achimpen to negotiate.
On the other hand, the report pointed out that Achimpen also has plans to leave China because his team is currently in arrears in salary. For Achimpen, returning to play in Europe is an option, so he certainly won't give up easily in the face of interest from Fenerbahce.
Although Achimpen's contract with Shenzhen team has been signed until 2024, there are still more than two years before the end, but considering the current financial situation of Shenzhen team, the possibility of retaining Achimpen this summer is very slim. Previously, the big-name foreign assistant Kintrotro introduced by the Shenzhen team only last year forced the team to rent it to the Argentine River Plate team on the grounds of unpaid wages. Because of its own "loss", when facing player transfer requirements, there are not many obstacles that Shenzhen can set up.
With the decline in the overall level of foreign aid in the Chinese Super League, Achimpen has gradually become a top star in the current Chinese Super League, and his value in the entire league is second only to the Oscars of Shanghai Harbor, ranking second in the Chinese Super League. If he eventually leaves the team, it will cause huge losses to Shenzhen's offensive system. In addition to Achimpen, Shenzhen also has two foreign aides, Kaldek and Wakaso, who are also linked to the transfer news.
