Joe Willock targeted by Besiktas: €20 million offer to Newcastle
According to Fabrizio Romano, Besiktas has submitted a €20 million offer for Joe Willock, while Nicolò Schira reports a preliminary agreement for a contract until 2030.
In the transfer saga, Besiktas has set its sights on Joe Willock, the 27-year-old English midfielder currently playing for Newcastle United. Fabrizio Romano reports that the Turkish club has made a formal offer of €20 million, leaving the decision in the hands of Newcastle.
Willock, with a market value of €14 million, has proven to be a key player in the 'Magpies' midfield. His current contract runs until June 30, 2027, underscoring his importance within Newcastle's setup, which may be forced to weigh this lucrative offer.
The operation would represent a strategic move for both clubs: for Besiktas, it would be a significant addition to their squad, seeking to strengthen their midfield with a player of Willock's caliber. On the other hand, Newcastle would need to assess whether they are willing to part ways with a player who has shown potential in the Premier League.
Nicolò Schira also backs Romano's information, adding that there is a preliminary agreement for a contract extending until 2030 between Willock and Besiktas. However, the outcome of this negotiation is still to be defined, and anticipation grows around the decision Newcastle will make.
