Gomez joined Beşiktaş on a two-year loan from Fiorentina however, Beşiktaş president Fikret Orman recently stated the club will only consider offers of €20 million for Gozmez at the end of the season despite not currently actually signing the player on a permanent deal.
“At the end of the season if any club wants Gomez they will have to offer €20m million or more I mean we are talking about a German international striker who has proven himself countless times at the highest level,” Orman was quoted as saying by Radyospor.
