Turkish international midfielder Salih Özcan has completed his move to Beşiktaş, signing a 3+1-year contract with the Istanbul club after joining as a free agent following his departure from Borussia Dortmund.
Beşiktaş announced the transfer Saturday, adding another experienced international to its squad ahead of the 2026-27 campaign.
"Welcome to Beşiktaş," the club said in a statement. "A 3+1-year contract has been signed with professional footballer Salih Özcan, who joined us as a free agent. We wish Salih Özcan every success in our famous jersey."
Speaking after a closed training session at Beşiktaş's preseason camp in Slovakia, the 28-year-old said he was delighted to begin a new chapter with one of Türkiye's biggest clubs.
"Beşiktaş is a big family. It is truly a huge club," Özcan said. "That's why I'm very happy. Everyone welcomed me so warmly, which made me even happier. Now I'm really looking forward to the season starting."
