Besiktas have made initial inquiries about signing Lorenzo Insigne, potentially paving the way for the Italian forward’s return to European football. The Turkish club’s interest comes as Insigne contemplates his future with Toronto FC in Major League Soccer.
Gianluca Di Marzio reports that while Insigne’s preference is to return to Italy, he is reportedly open to considering a move to Istanbul. The presence of his long-time friend and former national team colleague Ciro Immobile at Besiktas adds an appealing dimension to the potential transfer.
The Turkish transfer window remains open until February 11, giving Besiktas ample time to pursue the deal. Insigne, however, is adopting a patient approach. He intends to wait for the Italian transfer window to close before seriously considering the Besiktas option, keeping the door open for a possible return to Serie A.
Besiktas, under new leadership following recent changes in their presidency and board, appears eager to bring Insigne to the Super Lig. The club’s interest is not isolated, as Trabzonspor has also made inquiries about the former Napoli captain.
Despite these developments, it’s worth noting that Toronto FC’s general manager, Jason Hernandez, recently confirmed Insigne’s commitment to the club for the 2025 season, contradicting earlier transfer rumours. This statement adds another layer of complexity to the situation, as Insigne navigates his options between staying in MLS and potentially returning to European football.
