Trabzonspor has terminated contract with its player Dorukhan Tokoz in mutual agreement after next day when player has informed coach that he would be liking to leave team this summer.

It was reported that Nenad Bjelica didnt plan to use Dorukhan Tokoz much during upcoming season as he believed that his form and also tactical game wasnt suitable for kind of game which has been played which led for Tokoz to consider to leave in such manner. It is reported that player has arrived to Istanbul to have negotiations with some clubs in the city as there are reports that Basaksehirspor and Besiktas are showing interest to the player. It is being actively discussed that he could return to Besiktas and likely to have negotiations heavily with them

Besiktas player Nathan Redmond has posted a farewell message towards club supporters and hence making clear that his long-awaited decision regarding his future of the club has been made in way which team and supporters didnt wish for.

It was known that Redmond wife didnt feel comfortable at Istanbul and wanted to return to England, and Redmond with taking her opinion in serious note didnt manage to convince among club as it was reported that there were attempts with trying to convince her. With only making one transfer and failing to convince players to join them, this development has added poor transfer period to team.

Right now, Besiktas aims to announce some signings in short period and we would follow how it would achieve that.
