'Wout Weghorst Belongs Entirely To Beşiktaş' Besiktas Respond After Rejecting Man Utd’s Weghorst Approach

Besiktas turn down the compensation package on Wout Weghorst offer that lead to in doubt for Manchester United in getting the Dutchman star.

 

‘The claim that there is an exit clause in our football player’s contract, stating that his contract can be terminated with a

compensation of 2.5 million Euros in case of an offer from the Premier League, is fictitious.’

‘However, the news that the player in question will leave the team on Tuesday is completely untrue.

The initiative regarding Wout Weghorst belongs entirely to Beşiktaş.

If there is a development on this issue, the information will be shared.’

This come after Besiktas turned down a financial offer from Burnley, which was designed to release Weghorst from his six-month loan deal at the Turkish club.

Weghorst joined Burnley less than 12 months ago for a fee of £12m but he scored just twice in 20 appearances for the Clarets.

The Dutchman has rediscovered his best form in Istanbul, scoring nine times in 19 appearances for Besiktas this term.

United are willing to pay Burnley a fee – which will be passed on to Besiktas – in order to secure Weghorst for the remainder of the campaign.

The Dutchman is keen on a move to Old Trafford and said goodbye to supporters after Besiktas’ league win on Saturday.

Chelsea Striker Batshuayi Close To Besiktas Move, Claims Head Coach Yalcin

No Comments By

The 27-year-old could be heading for Turkey after an unsuccessful loan stint last season at Crystal Palace

Chelsea striker Michy Batshuayi is closing in on a move to Besiktas, according to the Turkish club’s coach Sergen Yalcin.

Batshuayi did not figure to be in the Blues’ plans for 2021-22, with the recent arrival of Romelu Lukaku pushing him further down the depth chart.

Now, the 27-year-old looks set to continue his career in Turkey.

“The club is trying to sign a good center forward,” Yalcin said. “We are now negotiating with Chelsea’s Michy Batshuayi.

“If everything goes well, we expect him to come here next week.”

Batshuayi joined Chelsea from Marseille ahead of the 2016-17 season in a deal worth €40 million.

The Belgian scored just five league goals during his debut season at Stamford Bridge, but managed to score a late winner against West Brom in May 2017 to clinch the Premier League title for the Blues.

Batshuayi has failed to lock down a regular role with Chelsea during his time with the club, and has spent time on loan with Crystal Palace, Valencia and Borussia Dortmund.

Last season Batshuayi struggled in his second stint with Palace, scoring just two goals all season for the London club.

Batshuayi was named to Belgium’s Euro 2020 roster this summer, making one appearance at the tournament as the Red Devils fell to Italy in the quarter-final.
