Marcelino Nunez Claim on Trabzonspor's January Agenda

With the mid-season transfer window approaching, many claims are emerging for Trabzonspor. One of them concerns Chilean midfielder Marcelino Nunez. The 26-year-old, who had previously been on the Black Sea club's radar, has reportedly returned to the radar of the claret and blues.

According to reports in the English press, the player, who wears the shirt of Ipswich Town, may leave the club in January. Trabzonspor's interest in the midfielder, who is going through a difficult time at his club, has become a topic of discussion again. The 1.73 m player, who produced three goals and nine assists in 36 Championship matches last season, is reported to have played an important role in his team's promotion to the Premier League.

In the new season, Nunez started with two goals in the English League Cup match against Leicester City, but he has managed only 142 minutes in two Premier League appearances. His last Premier League match came on 30 August against Manchester United, and in the following weeks he failed to find a place in the coaching staff's plans. This season, the player has featured in a total of four official matches for Ipswich's first team across the Premier League and League Cup, scoring two goals.

According to a report in Fotomaç, Trabzonspor previously wanted to sign the experienced player and may make another attempt in January. Nunez, valued at 14 million euros, is under contract with the English club until 30 June 2029. His profile is considered suitable for Trabzonspor, which is looking for a number eight who can control the game and has high passing quality. However, it is also noted that the player does not have the profile to shield the midfield on his own.
