“I wanted to sign Mustafa Pektemek while i was at Dnipro,” Ramos said.
“However, at that time he [Pektemek] had just recovered from a long term injury and was struggling for form.
“Despite this I wanted to sign him but the injury situation made it difficult.”
Ramos won back-to-back Europa League with Sevilla in 2005-07 and has also coached Tottenham, Real Madrid and CSKA Moscow.
Mustafa Pektemek has scored two goals in 14 appearances for Besiktas this season.
