BBC Sport - Fenerbahce have signed English forward Mason Greenwood from Marseille on a four-year contract.

The Turkish club state the transfer fee is 39m euros (£33.27m) but did previously advise it would be a total fee of 45m euros (£38.36m).

Greenwood finished joint-second behind Rennes' Esteban Lepaul in the 2025-26 Ligue 1 golden boot standings with 16.

Fenerbahce's presidential candidates Aziz Yildirim, who was elected, and Hakan Safi both made their interest known before the elections at the beginning of June.

"Hello Fenerbahce family, thank you so much for the support you have shown me. I am very happy to be here," Greenwood said.

Greenwood, who scored 48 goals in 81 appearances in all competition for Marseille, joined the French side from Manchester United in a £26.6m deal in July 2024.

At the time, United said they had negotiated a "sizeable sell-on fee", which is thought to be around 40%, for the academy product.

After an internal inquiry, United ruled out Greenwood returning to the club despite charges of attempted rape and assault against him being dropped in February 2023.

He subsequently joined Spanish outfit Getafe on loan for the 2023-24 season.

Fenerbahce finished second for the fifth successive season in the Turkish Super Lig and will play Poland's Gornik Zabrze in the second qualifying round of the Champions League this month.
