AS Monaco have reportedly raised their bid for Frosinone and Algeria winger Fares Ghedjemis, as Besiktas, Celtic and Glasgow Rangers struggle to keep up.

The player who turns 24 next month has been in the middle of a genuine bidding war all summer, with Frosinone comfortable in the knowledge they can hold out for a big sale.

Ghedjemis value has sky rocketed REGGIO NELL’EMILIA, ITALY – MARCH 09: Fares Ghedjemis of Frosinone Calcio and Gregoire Defrel of US Sassuolo during the Serie A TIM match between US Sassuolo and Frosinone Calcio – Serie A TIM at Mapei Stadium – Citta’ del Tricolore on March 09, 2024 in Reggio nell’Emilia, Italy. (Photo by Francesco Scaccianoce/Getty Images) They had already resisted proposals worth €8m in January and now his value has more than doubled thanks to the performances that took Frosinone to promotion into Serie A.

He scored 15 goals and provided three assists in 37 Serie B appearances.

Celtic and Rangers saw several bids turned down , and now the main challengers seem to be Monaco and Vincenzo Italiano’s Besiktas.

According to Belgian transfer expert Santi Aouna , Besiktas are offering better personal terms, but Ghedjemis would prefer Monaco.

Frosinone are content to sit back and let the clubs battle it out on the transfer market, as the asking price keeps going up and is now close to €20m.

What happened

A transfer bidding war is reportedly building around Ghedjemis, with four clubs across different European leagues — Turkish Süper Lig side Besiktas, Ligue 1's Monaco, and Scottish Premiership duo Celtic and Rangers — all in the running. The asking price is set at €20m. The interest from clubs in Turkey, France, and Scotland suggests a wide market for the player. The article, published via Football Italia, hints at an Italian connection, either in the player's background or current club. With multiple suitors, a transfer could be concluded relatively quickly if the valuation is met.

Chance analysis

A €20m valuation with interest from four clubs in different leagues indicates significant market confidence in Ghedjemis. The diversity of suitors (Turkey, France, Scotland) suggests the player is viewed as a high-upside asset rather than a league-specific fit. For prediction systems, the key takeaway is potential squad disruption for the selling club and the destination club's incoming reinforcement. The presence of Old Firm rivals Celtic and Rangers adds competitive tension to the negotiation.

Impact

Ghedjemis is likely to leave his current club for around €20m, with the destination club gaining a mid-tier European talent and the selling club losing a valuable asset.

AI Insight

Monitor the selling club's attacking or midfield options as a potential departure could open minutes or weaken depth depending on the player's role.
