Süper Lig's standout summer signings

The Süper Lig saw numerous stars arrive over the summer. Here are some of the standout arrivals.

Mohamed Salah:

Mo Salah departed Liverpool in the summer, and there were huge question marks over his future and where he would be. He ended up signing for Trabzonspor, penning a two-year deal with the club.

The signing is a major statement by the club, which is hoping to win the league for the first time in five years.

Salah scored a brace on his first league start for the club, as Trabzonspor won 2-1 against Istanbul Basaksehir.

Fabinho

Former Liverpool star Fabinho has also joined Trabzonspor and will link up with Mo Salah yet again. The Brazilian completes his move to Turkey after leaving Al-Ittihad in the Saudi Pro League this summer.

The 32-year-old made 44 appearances last season for Al-Ittihad across all competitions, scoring three goals and assisting three.

André Onana

Goalkeeper André Onana returns to Trabzonspor on loan for the second consecutive season. The Manchester United goalkeeper made 29 appearances in the Süper Lig last campaign, keeping six clean sheets.

The Cameroon international's contract with the Red Devils expires next summer, and his loan with Trabzonspor could be made permanent this time next year.

Vedat Muriqi

Striker Vedat Muriqi scored 23 goals in La Liga for RCD Mallorca last season and has earned himself a move to Fenerbahçe.

In his last league outing for the club, he scored and assisted, as Fenerbahçe were 4-2 winners against Konyaspor.

The 32-year-old is one of numerous attacking signings the club has made, as they look to lift their first league title since 2014.

Romelu Lukaku

Romelu Lukaku has joined Fenerbahçe from Napoli on a permanent deal, in a move worth around €6 million. The 33-year-old becomes another attacking signing for the club, helping build their power up top.

The Belgium international struggled with injuries last campaign, scoring just one Serie A goal. In the previous season, he scored 14 goals and assisted 10, helping Napoli win the league title.

Mason Greenwood

Mason Greenwood signed for Fenerbahce after completing a move from Olympique Marseille. The Englishman has already scored four goals and assisted two for the club since signing in the summer.

The 24-year-old had an eye-catching 2025/26 season for Marseille, scoring 16 and assisting seven in 32 Ligue 1 matches. His standout performances earned him a move to Turkey, in a deal worth a reported €39m.

Nathan Aké

Nathan Aké's Manchester City career came to an end in the summer, as he completed a move to Fenerbahçe. The defender spent six seasons at the Etihad Stadium, but his next challenge beckons in Turkey.

The Netherlands international had an injury-struck season last time out, but his start to this campaign has been brilliant. The 31-year-old has completed 90 minutes in all of his last seven appearances for the club, making him an important figure in the side's defence.

Leandro Trossard

Premier League champion Leandro Trossard completed a move to Besiktas from Arsenal worth an initial €18 million. The Belgian winger has signed a three-year contract, with an option for a further year.

The 31-year-old has featured in each of Beşiktaş' last four matches, but he is still searching for his first goal for the club.

Dušan Vlahović

Striker Dušan Vlahović completed a move from Juventus to Beşiktaş after his contract with the Italian side expired. The forward, aged 26, has signed a three-year deal with the side.

Vlahović scored 10 goals last season for Juve, across 23 appearances in all competitions. Seven of his goals were in the league, with three coming in the UEFA Champions League.

Across his 168 appearances for Juventus, he scored 68 goals and assisted 16.
