Official: Solskjaer's Besiktas sign Portuguese star from Sporting | OneFootball

It’s official. Tiago Djaló, former player of Sporting, has signed with Besiktas until 2028, coming from the Italian side Juventus. The Italian club also announced that it will receive 3.5 million euros (in three installments), plus variable bonuses of up to 1 million euros.

After spending a season on loan at Porto, the Portuguese center-back is now heading to Turkey for the first time. Throughout his career, besides representing the Alvalade club, he also played for Milan and French side Lille, where he even became a champion.

The player never convinced the Italian management, having played only one match for the Turin team. Last season, he scored two goals in 17 games for Porto. In April, the center-back was removed from the squad by Martín Anselmi, then coach of the Dragons, due to lack of professionalism.

It’s worth remembering that the athlete joined Sporting to play in the under-14s, but never progressed beyond the youth ranks and never made his debut for the first team. In 2018/19, he left Alvalade to join Milan, which sparked a negative reaction from fans, since he refused to renew his contract.

After signing for the Rossoneri, he made some remarks against the Alvalade club, stating that he didn’t feel wanted and that people could criticize his decision to move to Italy, which was certainly not for money. In the end, Djaló ended up playing 15 matches for Milan’s under-19 team.
