The Black Eagles have already shelled out €4 million on loan fees and would be able to activate his buyout clause if they find another €21 million.

The reigning Super Lig champions are contemplating signing Talisca on a permanent move.

The Istanbul giants want the attacking midfielder but face a big decision over whether to pay up.

Talisca has been in great form for Besiktas playing a key role in lifting the league title last season and he has 16 goals as well as four assists this campaign.

The powerful midfielder scored four goals in Champions League and has managed to earn himself a return to the Brazil national team setup.

Talisca will still need to impress Selecao head coach Titi if he hopes to make the Brazil team for the World Cup.

Besiktas are prepared to wait until the final Brazil squad ahead of the World Cup in Russia before making a final decision.

The Black Eagles are aware that Talisca’s value could skyrocket if he does end up making the final cut for Brazil and showcasing his talent in Russia.
