With Ole Gunnar Solskjaer taking over as the team’s coach, Beşiktaş’s transfer agenda has been set in motion.

The 51-year-old manager stated that Super Eagles striker, Paul Onuachu is a perfect fit for the system he intends to implement. Following this, chairman Serdal Adalı accelerated the transfer process.

Onuachu, who played on loan at Trabzonspor last season, made a significant impact by scoring 15 goals in 21 matches. Since Trabzonspor did not have a purchase option, Adalı is now stepping in to secure the Nigerian striker.

Adalı plans to negotiate the transfer, aiming to complete it through a loan agreement that includes a purchase option from his parent club, Southampton.
