On Tuesday, A Spor reported Aston Villa are among the clubs watching Beşiktaş’ Semih Kılıçsoy.

Arsenal have joined the Villans in following the 18-year-old, according to multiple reports from Turkey.

Wednesday’s Sabah says Aston Villa and Arsenal, along with Borussia Dortmund, Eintracht Frankfurt and Atlético Madrid, are planning to send scouts to watch him live in action.

Operating across the front three this season, he’s managed eight goals and an assist from 19 games, out of which seven goals and an assist came in his last seven appearances.

This has seen several European clubs ‘already take action’ and that includes Aston Villa.

That’s according to Fanatik, who states the Premier League duo and others have ‘assigned scouts’ to closely follow the Turkey U19 international.

Kılıçsoy has extended his deal until 2028, but Beşiktaş board member Feyyaz Uçar has said his side won’t be able to keep him for long.

Fanatik state the player’s aim is to continue to impress for the Black Eagles, then to make his debut for Turkey and represent them at the Euros. His aim is to increase his valuation and make a ‘greater financial contribution’ when he decides to leave Beşiktaş.
