"Brokerage" Threatens Century Deal in Turkey.. Beşiktaş President: Salah "Last to Know"
The transfer deal of Egyptian star Mohamed Salah to Turkish club Beşiktaş continues to stir controversy, amidst conflicting reports between the imminent official announcement of the agreement and the presence of obstacles that may delay the completion of the deal during the current summer transfer window.
According to Turkish and French media reports, Beşiktaş and Salah have reached a preliminary agreement for the player to join the team on a one-season contract with the possibility of renewal for an additional season, in exchange for an annual salary estimated at around 12 million euros, along with additional incentives. The reports also indicated that the player expressed his welcome to the sports project of the Turkish club and has already spoken with head coach Vincenzo Italiano and sporting director Önder Özen regarding his role within the team.
However, the deal entered a phase of complexity after statements from Beşiktaş president Serdal Adalı, who revealed a disagreement with Salah's agent (Rami Abbas) regarding the financial commission. Adalı stated that the two parties had reached an initial understanding before the agent's demands later increased, pointing out that a commission request of up to 35% is "unacceptable" for the club, while also affirming his belief that Salah may not be aware of these demands.
Beşiktaş had issued an official statement criticizing what it described as inaccurate news regarding its negotiations, without explicitly mentioning Mohamed Salah's name, but indicating that some reports published by Turkish journalist Yağız Sabuncuoğlu about the details and conditions of the deal do not reflect the truth.
For his part, Salah, according to reports, set a fundamental condition before giving his final approval for the transfer, which is to ensure continuous participation and not to repeat the experience of the last season with Liverpool, where he suffered from sitting on the bench in some matches. The player confirmed his readiness to play in multiple attacking positions and his desire to be an influential element within the team.
Despite the ongoing negotiations, current data indicates that both parties' desire to complete the deal remains intact, while the financial disagreement between Beşiktaş and Salah's agent remains the main obstacle to the official announcement.
