Malatyaspor Hope to Sign Besiktas Winger Gokhan Tore Admits Club President

Malatyaspor president Hakki Celikel has revealed that Besiktas winger Gokhan Tore is nearing a move to the Super Lig club.

Celikel stated that Malatyaspor hope to sign Tore on a one year deal with an option to extend by an additional season.

Malatyaspor have reached an agreement in principle for the winger and hope to announce his transfer by tomorrow.

The club president told AA: “God willing we will sign Gokhan Tore on a one year deal with an option to extend. Hopefully, we will officially sign him tomorrow and get him involved in preseason training as soon as possible.” 

Tore struggled for playing time at Besiktas last term making just eight appearances in all competitions.

The 27-year-old has had a fall from grace over the past few seasons.

The once highly rated winger started his career at Chelsea before moves to HSV Hamburg, Besiktas and West Ham.

The Turkey international has however, struggled for form over recent seasons and failed to win over the trust of former manager Senol Gunes.

Malatyaspor exceeded expectations last season narrowly missing out on a Europa League spot after finishing the league campaign in 5th place.
