Turkish football club Fenerbahce confirmed the signing of English left-back Archie Brown with an announcement video that included a playful jab at AC Milan.
Fenerbahce announced the arrival of the 23-year-old on Saturday evening. The video accompanying the confirmation notably featured elements that seemed to poke fun at Italian side Milan, who were also reportedly interested in signing Brown.

Reports suggested that both Fenerbahce and Milan had dispatched private jets to Belgium to facilitate the player`s transfer, but Brown ultimately opted to join the Turkish club.
This perceived bidding competition was apparently referenced in Fenerbahce`s video, which began by displaying two aeroplanes.
The announcement video also included a scene where Brown is shown listening to an Italian radio broadcast reporting his supposed impending transfer to Milan. The 23-year-old then asks for the station to be changed, and a recorded voice announces his actual arrival in Istanbul and his transfer to Fenerbahce.
