Besiktas open talks with Corinthians for Breno Bidon, weigh big bid | OneFootball

Breno Bidon has once again attracted interest from the international market and could become the subject of a major deal in the final days of the transfer window. Beşiktaş, from Turkey, has started talks with Corinthians in an attempt to sign the 21-year-old midfielder on a permanent transfer.

According to ESPN, the Istanbul club contacted Timão at the beginning of this week. So far, no official offer has been made, but the Turkish side has indicated a willingness to invest between 18 million and 20 million euros in the player. Based on the conversion provided by the publication, those amounts correspond to approximately R$ 106.5 million and R$ 118.5 million, respectively.

The talks are taking place amid Corinthians’ need to sell players to increase revenue and balance the club’s financial planning for the season.

Beşiktaş is pushing to move forward for Bidon

Time is one of the key factors in the talks. Although Turkey’s transfer window remains open until Friday (4), Beşiktaş intends to try to complete the deal before then.

The urgency is related to the team’s participation in the Europa League. The list of players registered for the continental competition must be submitted as early as this Wednesday (2), which has led the Turkish club to speed up negotiations in hopes of having Bidon available.

Despite the interest and the figures discussed between the parties, ESPN points out that Corinthians has still not received a formal offer. Therefore, at this moment, negotiations are ongoing, but there is no agreement yet for the midfielder’s transfer.

Bidon is among the squad’s main assets

Developed in the youth ranks at Parque São Jorge, Breno Bidon established himself in the senior squad and has become one of Corinthians’ players with the highest market value.

At 21, the midfielder has earned his place in the first team and has also featured for Brazil’s youth national teams. His performances in the black-and-white shirt have put his name on the radar of clubs abroad.

A potential offer in the range signaled by Beşiktaş would also carry extra weight given Corinthians’ financial situation. For weeks, the board has been working with the possibility of making at least one significant sale in this window to boost cash flow and move closer to the targets set for player transfers.

Timão reached the final days of Europe’s main transfer windows without completing a major transfer. Recently, other players from the squad and youth ranks were also approached by foreign clubs, but the talks did not end in an agreement.

In Bidon’s case, the next few hours should be decisive. Beşiktaş intends to speed up negotiations because of the Europa League registration deadline, while the Turkish window offers a slightly bigger margin, with its closing scheduled only for Friday.
