According to the Ass, Besiktas negotiated victoriously with Riyadh and wanted to sign Laporte.

Besiktas is still negotiating with Riyadh victory over Laporte's transfer, a week after his failed transfer to Athletic Bilbao. During this time, Besiktas made significant progress in the negotiations, thanks to their continued communication with the victory of Riyadh.

Meanwhile, Athletic Bilbao has not given up hope, and in recent days they have closely watched the progress of Laporte's transfer and tried to convince FIFA that it was not their fault that the transfer documents could not be submitted on time. They are expected to receive a reply Tuesday or Wednesday.

Besiktas' current negotiations focus is to allow Riyadh to bear most of Laporte's annual salary of 13 million euros. According to internal news from Besiktas, the player himself has a positive attitude towards joining and is negotiating on the details of the contract.

Besiktas hopes to finalize the transfer as soon as possible to bring the player to Istanbul on September 12 before the Türkiye transfer window is closed.

Another Turkish club, Trabzon Sports, is also actively promoting the signing, and their target is Manchester United goalkeeper Onana. Trabzon Sports plans to bring it to Türkiye this Thursday if the player accepts the offer.
