Trabzonspor signs Portuguese winger Noah Saviola for record fee

Trabzonspor announced the signing of 22‑year‑old Portuguese winger Noah Saviola from Portuguese side Vitoria SC. The club will pay a €8.5 million transfer fee in four installments, with an additional €3 million in performance‑related bonuses, making the deal one of the most expensive in the club’s history following the earlier acquisition of Ruslan Malinovskyi.

Saviola arrived in Trabzon ahead of the preseason camp at the Mehmet Ali Yılmaz facilities, where he was greeted by fans with flowers at the airport. The player said the club’s confidence was a key factor in his decision, stating, “Trabzonspor gave me confidence” and pledging to help the team win and score many goals. He noted he can play on either wing and is eager to contribute to the team’s championship ambitions in the Trendyol Süper Lig.

The transfer underscores Trabzonspor’s intent to strengthen the squad for the upcoming season and marks a significant investment in a young talent expected to make an impact on the field.
