Besiktas are interested in signing Chelsea attacker Lucas Piazon before the transfer window closes in Turkey at the end of this month, say Bein Sports Turkey.

The Turkish giants are still in the market for a winger and they’ve also been linked with Southampton’s Mohamed Elyounoussi and Schalke’s Yevhen Konoplyanka in recent weeks.

It’s reported the 25 year old is keen to continue his career at Besiktas and will accept the move if the Super Lig side can reach an agreement with Chelsea.

Piazon spent last season on loan at Serie A side Chievo Verona and it seems he’s not in the plans of new Chelsea boss Frank Lampard. The Brazilian wasn’t involved yesterday for the defeat to Manchester United and will need to find a club which can give him games.

Despite being with the Premier League side since 2012, the former Sao Paulo man has only managed to make three senior appearances for Chelsea, and has just a year left on his contract at Stamford Bridge.
