Jota Silva: "It was a step I wanted to take"

Now, in recent statements to the Greek eagles' media, the winger talked about this decision: "I feel very good, it was a step I wanted to take in my career. I couldn't ask for a better reception. When I found out about the interest it was very clear to me that I wanted to seize this opportunity. I think it was the right step in my career. We tried to close as quickly as possible".

"I spoke with some of my friends who played in Turkey. They told me that this was the ideal club for me and that I would be happy here. It was very easy to accept this proposal. I have always been passionate about being able to play in clubs that fight for big things and want to win. I am obsessed with winning and we have that in common. Also the passion of the fans and the city", he added.

Next, Jota Silva addressed his strengths: "I am a determined player, I don't give up on a ball and I want to be very happy here. I am a player who does not give up, I will fight until the end. It will be one of the things that will help me contribute to the success of Besiktas".

Finally, the player who was determined to sign with Sporting, showed his goals: "My biggest goal is to help Besiktas achieve its goals. I always put the team ahead of individuals".
