Claim that Enes Ünal could move to Göztepe

National team footballer Enes Ünal has been claimed to possibly return to the Süper Lig during the mid-season transfer period. The 29-year-old forward, who has not been able to deliver the performances he wanted in Spain and has struggled with injuries in recent years, is reported to be on the radar of İzmir club Göztepe.

According to reports in the European press, Göztepe are considering signing Enes Ünal on loan with an option to buy in order to strengthen their attack. It is stated that head coach Stanimir Stoilov wants an alternative striker for a two-forward system and has made a request to the management in this direction. Enes Ünal is being evaluated as a player who could partner Juan up front.

The national team player has made 11 appearances this season and scored 3 goals. His market value is listed at 7 million Euros, and his contract with his current club runs until 2029. It is reported that the player wants to revive his career and is warm to the idea of joining a team where he could secure regular game time.

At the same time, the injuries that have affected Enes Ünal's career stand out. In 2023, he suffered a cruciate ligament tear while at Getafe and was out of action for about 211 days. After his transfer to Bournemouth, he fractured a toe in 2024, and in 2025 he suffered another cruciate ligament injury that kept him out for roughly 286 days.

At present, there is no official statement or confirmed information that the transfer has been finalized. Developments may become clearer during the transfer window.
