There’s a claim in the Turkish media that Besiktas have decided the transfer fee for Semih Kılıçsoy.

The 20-year-old forward has been linked with a move to England in recent weeks following reports of interest from Aston Villa and Leeds United.

Sabah report on the latest development regarding the future of Kılıçsoy after reports the Istanbul club were looking to loan out the youngster.

It’s claimed Besiktas are still hoping to find a loan with Aston Villa and Leeds United still reportedly pursuing the attacker, but they also want to add a €20m option to buy into the agreement.

Kılıçsoy himself is said to be keen on a move to Europe after finding his chances limited last season.

Last month we covered reports Leeds United were looking to enter transfer talks with Besiktas over a loan deal for the forward. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer reportedly held meetings with the scouting team with regards to letting the player go out on a temporary deal.

Aston Villa have also been linked with the Turkey international following reports in May they were looking to sign him. Villa were also linked with the player last summer when they reportedly made an offer.

Kılıçsoy made 36 appearances for the Black Eagles this season, scoring four goals. He’s contracted until June 2028.
