Ryan Kent has reportedly "turned down" the chance to move away from Fenerbahce.

The winger is expected to leave the Turkish giants in the January window after struggling to make an impact.

Despite reports stating that the Englishman has interest from several clubs including Al-Ettifaq, with ex-boss Steven Gerrard launching a £3.4million for the forward earlier this week.

However, there has been on fresh update and other side's are also said to be a fan of Kent.

Fellow Turkish Super Lig side Samsunspor are one of the teams interested in signing the former Rangers player but the club's president has confirmed that the winger rejected them.

Yüksel Yıldırım said: "We wanted Ryan Kent, Joshua King and Miha Zajc from the yellow-dark blue team rather than Michy Batshuayi, but the players do not want to come.

"We will try to convince them, but the players have serious suitors from Europe. These transfers are difficult."

Kent has also been linked with Hull City and Cardiff.

Meanwhile, former Rangers defender Filip Helander has had a bumper £850,000 price tag put on him by Odense after Anderlecht had a second bid of £175,000 rejected.

The Swedish stopper only signed a one-year deal with the Danish club after leaving Rangers last summer following four injury-ravaged years in Glasgow.

But despite being out of contract at the end of the season. Odense want the hefty fee to allow the 30-year-old to move to Brussels.

Anderlecht made two bids of £125,000 and £175,000, but Odense want far more than that to sell the former Bologna stopper.

And the Belgian club look set to pull the plug on a move for Helander, who revealed last week he was unsure about his next club.

Helander said: ""It is difficult to say what will happen. I'm under contract until the summer and that's the only thing I can relate to.

"If something else happens, I'll decide. I will not reject anything, but right now I have no offer on the table."
