After reaching an initial agreement with Lazio, Besiktas have entered discussions with Nuno Tavares over personal terms - with multiple sources confirming the news. The defender is a top target for the interested team, who see him as the perfect addition to their squad. With negotiations underway, the deal now rests on reaching an agreement with the player on personal terms and bonuses - which are expected to be agreed imminently. While Besiktas and Lazio continue talks, no breakthrough has been reported. AL Ittihad and Chelsea reportedly may still have an interest, but currently the focus is on getting this deal across the line. Across the season 25/26, Besiktas have let in 22 goals in 17 (1.29 per game), roughly in line with the Super Lig average. Nuno Tavares would be expected to give them some extra stability and depth for the tougher stretches of the season. Lazio continue to be linked with Alex Toth, Yuri Alberto and Nathan Patterson while Besiktas are also rumoured to be tracking Thilo Kehrer, Quilindschy Hartman and Antonin Kinsky.
