  • Official signatures are expected soon, according to the report.

Çağlar Söyüncü was expected to be heading to England. Instead, the experienced Turkey international defender is reportedly staying in Türkiye, with newly promoted Süper Lig club Çorum FK emerging as his next destination.

The transfer follows comments from Fenerbahçe executive Cihan Kamer, who said he did not know where Söyüncü had gone but had heard the 30-year-old was speaking with an English club. Those remarks fueled reports linking the defender with West Ham United.

European transfer windows have closed, yet Söyüncü had not reached an agreement with a new club. Ajansspor reported that Çorum FK had completed negotiations with both Fenerbahçe and the player. Formal signatures are expected shortly.

Söyüncü began his professional career at Altınordu before playing for Freiburg, Leicester City and Atlético Madrid. He joined Fenerbahçe after those spells at major European clubs.

I don't know where Çağlar went. I heard he was speaking with a club from England.
