January 21, 2024 – Polish midfielder Sebastian Szymanski is poised to leave Fenerbahçe and join French Ligue 1 side Stade Rennes. The transfer, reported by multiple sources including L’Équipe and Le Parisien, is expected to be finalized shortly.
The deal is reported to be worth approximately €9.5 million, with an additional €1 million in potential bonuses.
Szymanski,26,joined Fenerbahçe in the summer of 2023 for a fee of €9.75 million. He initially flourished under then-manager İsmail Kartal, contributing significantly to the team’s attacking play. However, his form dipped under subsequent managers José Mourinho and Domenico Tedesco.

Fenerbahçe has been active in the transfer market, recently adding Anthony Musaba, Mattéo guendouzi, and Mert Günok to their squad. Cenk Tosun has departed via mutual contract termination, while İrfan Can Kahveci and Rodrigo Becão are on loan at Kasımpaşa. Szymanski is expected to be the next player to leave the club.
