Lincoln sign Brentford's Konak on loan
Championship newcomers Lincoln City sign midfielder Yunus Konak from Brentford on a season-long loan.
Lincoln City has signed Brentford midfielder Yunus Konak on loan for the season, following the Turkish international's agreement to a new five-year contract with the Premier League side. The 20-year-old, who has made 10 substitute appearances for Brentford since joining from Sivasspor in January 2024, has an additional 12-month option included in his contract.
Konak, who has also spent part of the 2025-26 season on loan at Oxford, has been identified as Lincoln's top target for strengthening their midfield this summer. The club's sporting director, Jez George, believes the 18-year-old's out-of-possession attributes align with their playing style, and hopes he can develop his other skills while playing under their system.
Konak joins Lincoln on the same day the club launched its first campaign in the second tier for 65 years, which began with a loss to Middlesbrough.
