Ndour agreement : Italy U21 international to Fiorentina from PSG for 5m price

Multiple sources report Fiorentina have agreed a deal with Paris Saint-Germain for Italy Under-21 international Cher Ndour, paying €5m for half his contract, interrupting the Besiktas spell.

The 20-year-old midfielder had been on loan at Besiktas until the end of the season, but had to terminate that early after making 22 appearances for the Turkish club, contributing one goal and two assists.

According to RMC Sport, Fabrizio Romano and more, Fiorentina are paying €5m to purchase 50 per cent ownership of Ndour.

This means if he is sold on, then 50 per cent of that fee will go to PSG.

The player is set to undergo a medical and then sign a contract to June 2029.

Ndour had unusual career path

Ndour was a product of the Atalanta youth academy before the move to Benfica in 2021, then joined Paris Saint-Germain as a free agent in the summer of 2023.

He had loans at SC Braga and Besiktas, while also representing Italy at every youth level from Under-15 to Under-21.

Fiorentina are also ready to line up Nicolò Zaniolo from Galatasaray, on loan with obligation to buy, once Atalanta terminate his loan first.
