Besiktas have reportedly reached an agreement to sign El Bilal Touré from Atalanta on loan with an option to buy, but the Turkish side are also expected to get Tiago Djaló from Juventus.

Besiktas are expected to sign two Serie A players in the coming hours.

Touré and Djaló set to join Besiktas

As reported by Fabrizio Romano, the Turkish club has reached an agreement with Atalanta for El Bilal’s loan transfer. The deal includes an option to buy.

Up next for Besiktas is Tiago Djaló from Juventus, added Romano, with negotiations between the two clubs reported to be at an advanced stage.

Djaló not part of Juventus plans

Both Touré and Djaló returned to their clubs after loan spells in the 2024-25 campaign.

Touré played for Bundesliga side Stuttgart, scoring three goals in 17 appearances across all competitions, while Djaló played for Porto FC.

It is no secret that the Portuguese centre-back is not part of Igor Tudor’s plans at Juventus, especially after an unconvincing pre-season.
