Besiktas has reportedly added Vasco da Gama's 19-year-old winger Rayan to their transfer radar, according to Turkish media.
The talented youngster has drawn interest not only from Besiktas but also from European clubs, including Olympique Lyon in France.
Rayan featured in 37 matches for Vasco da Gama last season, scoring 10 goals and providing 1 assist.
His market value is estimated at €14 million ($16,35 million), highlighting his rising profile in South American football.
Besiktas recently reinstated Ali Riza Sergen Yalcin as head coach, replacing Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after a disappointing start to the season.
The club confirmed Yalcin’s contract until the end of the 2026-2027 season, signaling a fresh start on and off the pitch.
The Turkish media report underscores Besiktas’ intent to strengthen their squad with young, high-potential talent.
Rayan’s age, performance stats, and versatility on the wing make him a promising prospect for the Black-and-White side as they aim to bounce back in domestic and European competitions.
