Fenerbahçe are considering a move for Amar Dedić as the club prepares for the possibility of losing Nelson Semedo before the transfer window closes. According to Turkish outlet SportSport, the Istanbul side have identified the 23-year-old Bosnia and Herzegovina international as one of their preferred options at right-back, although no formal negotiations have been confirmed yet.

Semedo's future could trigger move
Fenerbahçe's interest in Dedić is directly linked to Semedo's future. The Portuguese defender has attracted interest in the market, prompting the Turkish club to assess potential replacements. If Semedo leaves, Dedić is expected to become a priority target thanks to his attacking style, defensive versatility and experience at European level.
Dedić enjoyed a productive 2025/26 season with Benfica, making 44 appearances in all competitions. The right-back contributed two goals and seven assists, establishing himself as one of the club's most consistent performers while also featuring regularly in the UEFA Champions League. His displays have strengthened his reputation as one of Europe's most promising full-backs.
Benfica could face fresh interest
Benfica are not actively looking to sell Dedić, but growing interest from abroad could test their position if Fenerbahçe decide to formalize their pursuit. For now, the Turkish club's plans remain dependent on Semedo's situation, with Dedić firmly on the shortlist should a vacancy emerge on the right side of the defence.
