Transfer bomb in Turkey: Dušan Vlahović agrees terms with Beşiktaş!

Renowned Serbian striker Dušan Vlahović is close to continuing his career in the Turkish Süper Lig. According to a post on X (formerly Twitter) by renowned Italian insider and journalist Nicolò Schira, the 26-year-old forward is on the verge of joining Istanbul club Beşiktaş as a free agent.

According to the source, negotiations between the parties have entered the final stage, with an agreement already reached on the key terms of the contract.

Contract until 2029 and an €8 million salary

Beşiktaş's management has prepared a financially attractive offer for the Serbian goalscorer:

The Turkish club's management is fully confident that it will successfully complete this major deal in the coming days.

The Vincenzo Italiano factor and the rejection of a Saudi offer

The arrival of Vincenzo Italiano as Beşiktaş head coach is playing a key role in the potential success of this transfer. The coach personally contacted the Serbian striker and managed to convince him that he would be the club's central project and main goalscorer.

It is worth recalling that Vlahović had previously received Saudi Arabian clubs offering astronomical financial packages. However, the footballer rejected the Arab offers, choosing the Turkish championship, which offers strong competition and is close to the European football landscape.
