FENERBAHCE have reportedly frozen Ryan Kent’s contract after the winger rejected several transfer offers this month.
The ex-Rangers star could now stay in Istanbul but with no wages in a shock twist, despite many reports linking him with several clubs.

Kent, 27, has been linked with English Championship clubs Cardiff City and Hull City, while there was also talk over a move to Croatia with Dinamo Zagreb.
It was also claimed that Kent had agreed terms with former boss Steven Gerrard‘s Al-Ettifaq after a fee of £3.4million was tabled.
However, those links have since led to nothing and Kent remains out-of-favour in Turkey after starting just one league all season.
He hasn’t featured since November since being frozen out of the squad – and now his wages have too.

That’s according to TRT Sports – who claim Fenerbahce have taken action after Kent rejected several offers this month, despite the club accepting the bids.
It’s a bizarre turn of events as it was suggested last month that the wideman had asked to leave the Turkish giants just days before the window opened.
Kent has started eight games for Fenerbahce since his free transfer switch in June.
He spent five years at Ibrox – one season on loan – and was a fan favourite in Govan, helping the Gers win the Premiership title in 2020/21 and reach the Europa League final the following year.
But Fenerbahce fans don’t rate him as highly in Turkey.
And it all went from bad to worse when the Istanbul outfit crashed to a devastating 6-1 loss to FC Nordsjaelland in November, their heaviest defeat in 31 YEARS.
Some branded him the worst footballer they have ever seen following his flop performance and that was his last outing in a yellow and blue shirt.
He has been on the bench on a couple of occasions but he has well and truly fallen out of favour under manager İsmail Kartal.
