Fenerbahche completed the transfer of Manchester City defender Nathan Ake
Turkey's Fenerbahçe club announced that it has officially completed the transfer of Manchester City defender Nathan Aké. Zamin.uz reported this.
After winning numerous prestigious awards in the British Isles, the thirty-one-year-old Dutch footballer decided to continue his career in the Turkish championship. This transfer is regarded as one of the important steps for the Istanbul club to strengthen its defensive line.
Nathan Aké is currently on a short break as he participated in the World Cup with the Netherlands national team. It is reported that once the experienced defender's rest period ends, he will join Fenerbahçe's pre-season training camps being held in Austria.
With his rich experience, he is expected to contribute to the success of the Turkish club within the new team. The footballer had been worthily representing Manchester City since 2020.
The Dutch defender won the English Premier League title four times with the Manchester side. He earned the trust of the coaches by being equally reliable both in the center of defense and on the left flank.
Aké's versatile playing style made him one of the team's most important members. Nathan Aké began the early years of his professional career at London's Chelsea club.
The young defender also managed to celebrate the English championship twice as part of this club. Thus, the footballer joined the few players who have won a total of six EPL gold medals during their career.
In the recently concluded world championship, the Netherlands national team left the tournament earlier than expected. The Dutch faced the Morocco national team in the quarter-final stage, recording a draw in regular time, but missed the opportunity in the penalty shootout.
Now, the experienced defender aims to achieve new victories on the green fields of Turkey. According to One.uz, this agreement significantly increases Fenerbahçe's chances in the fight for the championship.
