Anderson Talisca has been in wonderful form for Besiktas over the past two seasons.
There is only one problem, the powerful attacking midfielder who helped guide the Black Eagles to the league title last term is on loan from Benfica.
Talisca is into his second season on loan with the Istanbul giants.
The 23-year-old has scored 16 times this campaign including four in the Champions League.
It is perhaps little surprise that interest is starting to mount.
