Trabzonspor reaches agreement to sign Fabinho
Turkish football club Trabzonspor has reached a verbal agreement to sign 32-year-old Brazilian midfielder Fabinho. The player enters the club as a free agent following the conclusion of his contract with the Saudi Arabian side Al-Ittihad. This move is expected to reunite Fabinho with Mohamed Salah, with whom he previously played at Liverpool between 2018 and 2023.
The transfer process is currently in its final stages. The athlete is scheduled to travel to Turkey within the next 48 hours, with reports by journalist Yagiz Sabuncuoglu specifying his arrival by Monday. Upon his arrival in Trabzon, Fabinho will undergo mandatory medical examinations before the club formally announces his acquisition and finalizes the contract.
This development marks a significant shift for the Turkish club, which aims to strengthen its midfield by leveraging Fabinho's availability on the free market. The reunion of the former Liverpool teammates serves as a major strategic move for the team, as they prepare for the upcoming season with an experienced player who previously spent five years at the highest level in the Premier League.
