Besiktas president confirms they are still trying to convince Vlahovic | OneFootball

Besiktas have refused to give up on signing Dusan Vlahovic this summer, with the Serbian striker still without a new club after leaving Juventus. The Turkish side made the forward a target after appointing Vincenzo Italiano as their manager, and the player has already spoken with them about a possible move.

However, DV9 believed he would eventually join a top European club such as Barcelona, PSG, or Bayern Munich once he became a free agent. Because of that expectation, he has continued to wait for an offer from one of those teams rather than accepting the opportunity currently available.

Besiktas continue pursuit of Vlahovic

So far, Besiktas are the only club to have shown serious interest in adding Vlahovic to their squad. The Turkish club have not changed their position despite the striker delaying a decision over the last few weeks.

They view him as a player who can help them compete with Galatasaray and Fenerbahce for major honours. The club remain determined to complete the signing, even with reports suggesting that Vlahovic could return to Juventus.

President confirms transfer talks

Besiktas president Serdal Adali is leading the club’s efforts to bring the Serbian striker to Turkiye. He is keen to help establish the club as a major force again and believes a player of Vlahovic’s quality would represent an important addition.

The president confirmed the club’s position via Sky Sports Italia:

“We are proceeding with the transfers in line with the plan we defined at the start of the season. Vlahovic? We are working, we are discussing it. “

Besiktas will continue discussions as they attempt to convince Vlahovic that their project can offer him the opportunity he wants. The Turkish club hope their persistence will eventually lead to an agreement.

For now, the striker remains focused on finding the right destination, while Besiktas continue to push for his signature. They believe their interest and ambition could give them an advantage as they look to secure one of the biggest transfers available this summer.
