ISTANBUL (AP) — Former England forward Mason Greenwood signed for Fenerbahce to join his third club in three years since being banished from the Manchester United team.
Fenerbahce said in a statement late Tuesday it will pay Marseille 39 million euros ($44.5 million) and gave the 24-year-old Greenwood a four-year contract.
"It was a no-brainer when they (were) interested in me," said Greenwood, who had been pursued by Atletico Madrid, in a video message posted by his new club. "It's the biggest club in Turkey and I can't wait to get started."
Fenerbahce has not won the Turkish league since 2014, while fierce city rival Galatasaray has captured seven ****** les in that time including the last four.
As runner-up last season, Fenerbahce starts its Champions League campaign next week in the second qualifying round, hosting Gornik Zabrze in the first leg.
