Fenerbahce target Real Madrid star alongside Mo Salah in attempt to build super team

Fenerbahce want a Real Madrid star to lead them into the future alongside former Liverpool star Mo Salah, reports claim.

Salah ended a glittering nine-year stint with Liverpool last month, playing his final game against Brentford at Anfield after agreeing to end his two-year contract a season early.

The Egyptian, who scored 257 goals for Liverpool, ended his deal via mutual consent and is now set for a final career move in Europe.

Though he is preparing for the World Cup with Egypt, Salah has reportedly given the green light to joining Fenerbahce.

Speaking before he was elected, new Fenerbahce president Aziz Yildrim said the club "will sign him" - before board member Ertan Torunogullari claimed Salah is "very keen" to join and that "extremely positive meetings" took place.

But that is not all as fresh reports from Fanatik state that Fenerbahce are going all out for another high-profile addition.

Already locked into transfer planning, Yildirim is set to contact Florentino Perez regarding a potential swoop for Brahim Diaz.

Fenerbahce have identified the Morocco international as a top target and wish to test Real's resolve and see if they are open to selling him.

Yildirim is set to reach out directly to Perez, also recently re-elected into presidency, before the recruitment team handle it further.

Should initial discussions progress, Fenerbahce then look into setting up talks with the Diaz and his representatives - with his father Sufiel Abdelkader set to be heavily involved.

The 26-year-old has one year remaining on his contract at the Santiago Bernabeu and could move on as part of Jose Mourinho's rebuild.

Real have already agreed deals for Denzel Dumfries, Bernardo Silva and Ibrahima Konate, with a need for outgoings.

Diaz, who has played 163 times, is one of the candidates to move on as he is not deemed to part of their plans.

Real are said to be open to offers and may even be willing to offload him for less than his €30 million market value.

Together, Diaz and Salah could add a new dimension to Fenerbahce's attack and be the difference in the Turkish Super Lig after they finished three points behind champions Galatasaray last season.

Diaz is preparing for his first World Cup with Morocco having been the top scorer at the Africa Cup of Nations earlier this year.

He missed a penalty in a controversial final against Senegal, who saw their victory stripped and handed to Morocco after they walked off the pitch in protest.
