Mohamed Salah’s agent denies Besiktas transfer rumors, says no decision yet

Mohamed Salah’s agent, Ramy Abbas Issa, has denied reports that the forward has agreed to join Turkish Super Lig club Besiktas, insisting that no decision on Salah’s next club has been made. Speaking on X, Abbas Issa said he does not know where Mohamed will play next season and added that his team does not hold talks with clubs Salah would not want to join just for media noise. The denial follows earlier claims that Salah had agreed terms with Besiktas after leaving Liverpool at the end of the 2024‑25 season. Salah recently represented Egypt at the ongoing FIFA World Cup, where the Pharaohs were eliminated by Argentina in the knockout round.

For Nigerian fans, Salah’s next move matters because he remains one of Africa’s most visible football stars; his destination influences where African talent aspires to play, affects broadcast rights and merchandise availability in the region, and shapes the narrative of African players excelling in top European leagues. While the Turkish league offers competitive salaries, many African players still view English or Spanish clubs as the pinnacle.

Until an official announcement emerges, follow trusted sports outlets for updates, consider how his choice might affect your viewing options or merchandise plans, and remember that transfer rumors often shift before contracts are signed.
