The Black Eagles social media team decided to put together a Batman themed video to welcome their new star man.
The Belgium international is revealed in a shadowy video which draws inspiration from the ‘Dark Knight’ movie trilogy.
To be fair it is pretty decent until Batshuayi appears in a rather naff looking Batman outfit.
It did do the trick however, as the video went viral on social media.
Well as the saying goes, any publicity is good publicity.
? O Beşiktaş’ın ihtiyacı olan her şey!
