Fenerbahçe officially announced the transfer of 19-year-old forward Sidiki Chérif to Coventry City for 24.5 million euros, marking the club's third most expensive sale in history. The transfer, which matches the reported 24.5 million euro fee, places Chérif behind Ferdi Kadıoğlu's 30 million euro sale to Brighton and Arda Güler's 28 million euro transfer to Real Madrid. Chérif, who scored 3 goals and provided 1 assist in 17 matches for Fenerbahçe, was signed in February 2026 with a 4 million euro loan fee and an 18 million euro buyout clause. Coventry City confirmed a long-term contract for the player, who expressed excitement about playing in the Premier League.
