New news from Sevilla brings joy as Youssef En-Nesyri, a 29-year-old forward, will bring in a new income close to 3 million euros for the Seville club after FIFA ordered Fenerbahçe to advance one of the outstanding installments of his transfer. The Turkish club has announced that the payment will be made on Monday, September 28 to settle the proceeding opened by the international organization.
The operation goes back to the summer of 2024, when Sevilla sold En-Nesyri to the Istanbul team for 19.5 million euros. The agreement established a payment schedule spread over several years, but the non-compliance of one of the installments ended up triggering a claim from the Spanish club to FIFA.
Sevilla filed a complaint with FIFA regarding Youssef En-Nesyri
The origin of the conflict lies in an installment that was due on April 30, 2026. Fenerbahçe acknowledges that this payment was not made within the agreed deadline, a circumstance that led Sevilla to initiate the process with FIFA to demand compliance with the transfer conditions.
The Turkish entity argues that its current board later paid that overdue amount. However, the process did not end there: Sevilla also claimed the following installment of the agreement, and FIFA has determined that the Istanbul team must advance that payment, initially scheduled for late October.
The amount that the Turkish club must now pay is around 2.9-3 million euros. Fenerbahçe itself has announced that it will carry out the transfer on Monday, September 28, the first business day after learning about the resolution.
The income comes from a deal closed over two years ago. Youssef En-Nesyri then left LaLiga after Fenerbahçe agreed to pay 19.5 million euros for his transfer, an amount structured through different due dates.
Fenerbahçe sanctioned for three transfer windows
The claim has also had sporting consequences for the Istanbul club. FIFA included Fenerbahçe in its registry with a ban on registering players for three transfer periods, although the Turkish club itself has explained that it is a temporary measure.
The sanction is directly related to the financial obligations arising from the signing of Youssef En-Nesyri. According to the club's statement, the ban will be lifted once the ordered payment is made and the corresponding administrative procedures are completed with FIFA.
The case will also be discussed at the Ordinary General Assembly on September 27. Fenerbahçe has announced that it will present to its members the financial situation of the previous year and the financial obligations inherited from that period.

The Moroccan is now with Al-Ittihad
Meanwhile, En-Nesyri no longer belongs to the Turkish team. The forward moved to Al-Ittihad during the winter transfer market in 2026, after arriving in Istanbul from Sevilla in 2024. His subsequent departure does not alter the financial obligations established between the two clubs in that deal.
The next step is scheduled for Monday, September 28. Fenerbahçe has committed to making the payment close to 3 million euros and then requesting the lifting of the transfer ban. For Sevilla, the process will allow for an early receipt of another part of the transfer of Youssef En-Nesyri that was originally not due until late October.
