Besiktas club doctor Ertuğrul Karanlık spoke to BJKtv about the fitness of Uğur Boral, Mustafa Pektemek, Tolga Zengin, Kerim Frei and Oğuzhan Özyakup.

“The scans have revealed a meniscus tear in [Ugur] Boral’s knee. It’s not as serious as it sound but he will undergo surgery,” Karanlık said.

“Goalkeeper Tolga’s injury is worse than we initially thought. He still hasn’t fully recovered. 

“Mustafa Pektemek suffered a foot injury during the Partizan game. We treated him here and sent him to the Turkish national team camp.

“Gokhan Tore also suffered an injury against Partizan. He had a pain in his left knee which we treated.

“Tore participated in first team training with the national team on Thrusday but he hasn’t fully recovered and still has a slight pain in his knee.”

Karanlık also stated that both Oğuzhan Özyakup and Kerim Frei have fully recovered from their injuries and should be available for Besiktas’s upcoming game in the Super League against Kasimpasa.
