Justice Minister Yılmaz Gürlek announced Wednesday that the investigation into the 4 Nisan attack on Fenerbahçe's football team will be reopened (2).

Yıldırım claims Muriqi deal agreed
Presidential candidate Aziz Yıldırım has reportedly reached an agreement to bring Vedat Muriqi back to the club, according to reports from Turkey (1).

No details on timing or financial terms have surfaced yet.
Lookman available, both Istanbul giants circling
Ademola Lookman is set to leave Atletico Madrid this summer, putting Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray on alert (3). The Nigerian forward has struggled for minutes in Spain, and his availability has sparked interest from both sides of Istanbul. The 28-year-old's versatility across the front line makes him a natural fit for either club, though it remains unclear whether Fenerbahçe's presidential uncertainty will slow any approach.
