Besiktas submit offer for Talisca, but Man Utd lead the chase

A Bola has learned that Besiktas have submitted an official proposal for Benfica midfielder Talisca.

The Black Eagles are eager to turn the Brazilian’s loan deal into permanent move, but they have so far failed to trigger a €21 million buy-out clause.

Besiktas have instead offered €18 million plus another 20% of future sale, but Benfica are not interested in such an arrangement.

According to A Bola, the Eagles have a gentleman’s agreement with Manchester United that should see Talisca move to Old Trafford in a deal worth around €40 million.

The Red Devils have yet to make their move though on the player who scored impressive 25 goals in 49 Turkish Super Lig outings.
