Beşiktaş manager Slaven Bilic admitted that not having a home stadium has been a problem for his side this season.

Bilic described Beşiktaş as being footballing nomads after having played home games in Istanbul, Konya and Ankara.

“Our biggest problem is of course not having a stadium, we do get support when we go to Ankara and Konya but we are always on the road,” Bilic told Bosnian television channel BHT.

“It is not ideal, we are homeless, we are footballing nomads.”
