Beşiktaş Vice President Murat Kılıç made a statement about the transfer agenda of the black and white players.

Murat Kılıç’s statements are as follows:

“Our winter camp is not just a place where physical training takes place. It is a very good training place where our team, our football players, have motivation and unity, how to act together and how team play should be. You are aware of this. Our motivation is very high. The motivation of our players is very high. We have a great time, especially with our coaches and technical team, both in terms of one-on-one meetings and in terms of training. Having these trainings will be very useful for us in the future.

As you know, it is not very easy to make transfers in the interim period. We, especially our coaches and our team, eliminate and criticize players so often that they look at the players’ history, injury status and mood in great detail. We don’t have the luxury of making mistakes. We are looking for players who can play in the current positions, in the positions where we will recruit new players, and who can be in the race to play in the first eleven. That’s why we’re not in a big hurry today.

As you know, currently two foreign players did not attend the camp. We have the right to recruit two young players. We have the right to make four transfers. We will fill it all out. As I said, these transfers will be players that will both excite our fans and motivate us while playing. The players are being interviewed. Agreements with players are okay, but the players we are looking for are players who play for their teams and whose teams care about them. Now we are trying to reach an agreement with their team. We will reach an agreement in a very short time. We will most likely make it to camp. Our first goal right now is to fill the desired positions.

The players are currently being interviewed. Agreements have been reached with the players, but since we have not signed any contracts with their clubs yet, it would not be right to mention their names right now. By the way, when making these transfers, we act according to both our budget and our economy. We act with our economy in mind. Because we don’t want to risk the future. We have a lot of work on the economy. We’ve talked about this a lot before. We have plans and projects that will bring a very good income to our economy, especially in a very short time. We will provide all of these in a very short time. We do not have any problems with the budget right now. We didn’t say anything about any budget. They can give their value and more to the players who can play in the first eleven and be in the race. We do not have any problems with the budget.

Regarding the positions, centre-back, left-back, left-back, as you know, Jurasek left. He will be able to play one six or eight, these positions are empty. These are our first priority, but if the opportunity arises, the centre-forward becomes the transfer, the opportunity arises, the left wing, the right wing, these can happen.

Of course, it may happen during this period. The player will come to the camp on Monday when an agreement is reached with his club, but it is not easy. Why is this not easy, because he doesn’t want to leave the club. Who in particular would you like to leave in the fold first? Players who are of no use to you and who do not contribute to the team. We will not make such a transfer. Since we are looking for players who are playing, have no injuries, are young and can be useful to our club in the future, it could happen today or tomorrow. Especially there is the African Cup. It’s Christmas break. So they can come when we agree with their clubs.

We are planning a goalkeeper transfer. I don’t want to name names. There are talks. Anyway, the names published in the press are not wrong names, they are correct names. As I said, interviews were held with the players.

Rafa Silva joined the camp and is training. Neither Sergen Hodja, the technical team nor the management has a problem with Rafa Silva. He can play if he wants, we have no problem. The normal process continues.”
