# Fenerbahce director of football flying in for Klavan talks

Fenerbahce director of football Damien Comolli is due in England later this week to discuss a deal for Liverpool’s Ragnar Klavan.

[According to Turkish Football](https://turkish-football.com/damien-comolli-to-fly-in-for-talks-with-liverpool-this-week-as-turkish-giants-target-star-defender-ragnar-klaven/), the Estonian defender has emerged as a transfer target for Fenerbahce, who have turned their attention away from Celtic’s Dedryck Boyata.

The Turkish giants are in the market for a new central defender and are also considering moves for Marcos Rojo and Stoke City’s Bruno Martins Indi.

Manager Philippe Cocu is keen to add to his options at the back before the end of the window.

Newcastle failed with a late move to sign Klavan in the final stages of the transfer window, but the Reds appear happy to move the player on to a foreign side.

Klavan, while only ever brought into the squad as a rotational option, is likely to find game time very hard to come by this season.
