Mohamed Salah, Egyptian winger 34 years old, has reached a preliminary agreement to become the star signing of Besiktas and continue his career in Turkey after finishing his contract with Liverpool. The deal does not involve a transfer fee and includes a contract until 2027, extendable to 2028, with a salary potentially reaching €12 million per season.

The agreement has not yet become official. The parties need to finalize the last contractual details before Salah signs and completes the medical examination, steps that the Turkish club hopes to complete in the coming days.

Mohamed Salah to sign for a season with Besiktas

Besiktas has offered Mohamed Salah an initial contract for one season with an optional second one. The economic agreement includes around €10 million fixed per season and an additional €2 million linked to achieving objectives.

Salah will arrive as a free agent after concluding his time at Liverpool, where he spent nine seasons. Without a club to negotiate with, the Istanbul side can allocate the operation budget to the player's salary and the agreed conditions.

The Egyptian postponed deciding on his future until after the 2026 World Cup. Egypt was eliminated by Argentina, prompting the forward to engage in talks to remain in Europe for at least one more season.

Besiktas' participation in the upcoming Europa League also fits Salah's plans. The striker will continue competing in a continental tournament after concluding his Premier League spell and rejecting, for now, other non-European alternatives.

Besiktas also negotiating for Darwin Núñez

The arrival of Mohamed Salah may not be the only attacking move by the club. The sporting director is in talks with Al Hilal to bring in Darwin Núñez, a 27-year-old Uruguayan forward and former teammate of the Egyptian at Anfield.

Besiktas is pursuing a loan for the 2026-2027 season, as Núñez is under contract with the Saudi team until 2028. The proposal to Al Hilal includes a payment close to €4 million for the loan.

Núñez lost prominence during his time in Saudi Arabia and is willing to consider a return to Europe. In his first season with Al Hilal, he recorded 9 goals and 5 assists in 24 matches, but was later marginalized in the attacking rotation.

The forward joined the Saudi club from Liverpool in 2025. His contractual situation prevents repeating the Salah formula, requiring Besiktas to obtain Al Hilal's consent for a loan without a confirmed purchase option so far.

Turkey awaits Mohamed Salah's final signature

Managed by Vincenzo Italiano, the team will face the upcoming season in the Turkish league and in the Europa League. Salah's addition would cover the right wing, while Núñez would compete as the main attacking option if negotiations with Al Hilal succeed.

The next steps will involve finalizing the documentation, the signing, and the medical tests of Mohamed Salah. Besiktas is working to announce the agreement in the coming days, although the signing will not be formally closed until the player completes these procedures.
