It's been a long time since we've last spoken... let's catch up on some Beşiktaş talk!
The club is currently going through a tumultuous summer and fans are up in arms with the lack of urgency the board has shown during this transfer window. Despite that, the club have completed several signings already with Ante Rebic, Daniel Amartey, Jean Onana and Oxlade-Chamberlain and are expected to complete the signigns of CSKA Moscow's Bakhtiyor Zaytundinov and possibly Arsenal's Nicolas Pépé in the upcoming days.
So there's plenty to talk about! Let's catch up!
