Alexander Djiku’s Resilient Return: Ready to Strengthen Fenerbahçe’s Title Charge
After weeks on the sidelines, Alexander Djiku is back to boost Fenerbahçe’s defense as they aim for Süper Lig glory.
Ghanaian center-back Alexander Djiku is ready to make his mark once again for Fenerbahçe after successfully recovering from an injury that kept him out of action. The 30-year-old defender, a key figure in the team, has resumed training following his absence during the Black Stars’ 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Angola and Niger.
Djiku picked up the injury during Fenerbahçe’s emphatic win over Sivasspor in the Turkish Süper Lig. His absence was felt both at the club and international levels, but his return is a welcome boost for the Istanbul-based side, who are locked in a fierce title race.
So far this season, the former Strasbourg stalwart has made nine league appearances, showcasing his defensive prowess and leadership. With Fenerbahçe sitting second in the league table on 26 points from 11 matches, trailing only arch-rivals Galatasaray, Djiku’s experience will be pivotal as they prepare for their next clash against Kayserispor.
Fans are particularly thrilled to see Djiku back in action, hopeful that his resilience and skill will fortify their backline during this critical phase of the season. For Djiku, the journey isn’t just about club success — it’s also about making an impact for Ghana in the coming international fixtures.
As Fenerbahçe eyes domestic glory and Djiku aims to cement his legacy on both fronts, his comeback story is one of determination, passion, and readiness to rise again.
