Trabzonspor, a club competing in the Europa League qualifiers against Ferencváros, is reportedly on the verge of securing a significant signing in Liverpool midfielder Fabinho. According to transfer market insider Fabrizio Romano, the Turkish side has reached a verbal agreement with the Brazilian player.

The potential transfer could see Fabinho travel to Turkey imminently, with the possibility of his signing being announced before Trabzonspor's crucial second-leg match against Ferencváros on Thursday. However, if the deal is completed, the former Liverpool star would not be eligible to participate in that specific Europa League fixture.

Fabinho, who shared many successful moments with Mohamed Salah during their time at Liverpool, would bring considerable experience to Trabzonspor's midfield. The club appears to be actively strengthening its squad as it navigates European competition, with this potential acquisition following closely on the heels of other transfer activities.

Trabzonspor has reached a verbal agreement with Fabinho, and the Brazilian midfielder could travel to Turkey soon, so his signing could even be announced before Thursday's Europa League qualifier against Fradi.
