Fenerbahçe has made its decision regarding the future of Edson Alvarez, who was on loan from West Ham United at the beginning of the season. The club has chosen not to exercise the purchase option on the Mexican midfielder. Fenerbahçe's management informed Alvarez that he is not being considered for the upcoming season.

Alvarez, who struggled with injuries during his stint at Fenerbahçe, has been granted special permission to join the Mexico national team camp for the 2026 World Cup preparations. After the national team process, Alvarez is expected to return to West Ham United, where his loan contract is set to expire.

The club's management indicated that Fenerbahçe plans to focus on different profiles in the midfield rotation for the new season. It is expected that Alvarez will evaluate offers from both Europe and Mexico during the summer transfer window, with his future likely to be clarified following the World Cup preparations.
