Aston Villa and Fulham are reportedly still keen on signing 19-year-old Turkish prodigy Semih Kilicsoy from Besiktas after failing with their bids in the summer.
According to a report by Caught Offside, Semih Kilicsoy remains a hot property in the market after attracting several well-known outfits in the summer transfer window. Aston Villa and Fulham are still interested in signing the 19-year-old Besiktas prodigy, with five other clubs keen on securing his services next year.
The Semih Kilicsoy story
Semih Kilicsoy is the latest highly-rated wonderkid to rise in prominence in his homeland. A native of Istanbul, the Turk spent his formative years in his homeland, passing through the academies at three clubs while graduating from the youth division at Besiktas JK.
The 19-year-old made his first-team bow for Besiktas midway through the 2022/23 season and has come leaps and bounds in the last 18 months. Kilicsoy has enjoyed a solid start to the new campaign, providing three assists in seven appearances across all competitions.
Meanwhile, Semih Kilicsoy’s progress has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several well-known clubs across Europe. Many teams attempted to sign the Turkish international from Besiktas in the summer transfer window before a move failed to see the light of day. Aston Villa, Fulham, and five other outfits remain keen on securing his services next year.
Premier League move on the horizon?
Aston Villa unsuccessfully attempted to sign Semih Kilicsoy from Besiktas JK in the summer transfer window. The West Midlands club’s continued interest in the teenage prospect is understandable, considering he can be a solution in multiple positions. The youngster could compete with Morgan Rogers and Jhon Duran in the final third.
As for Fulham, the West London club also mulled over signing Kilicsoy in the summer transfer window. The Cottagers are keen on bolstering their offensive department next year after failing to bring many attackers in the summer transfer window. So, Kilicsoy is an option worth considering for Fulham.
The report has claimed that Nottingham Forest, Ajax, AS Monaco, Bayer Leverkusen, and VfB Stuttgart are also interested in signing the 19-year-old Turkish attacker from Besiktas. It will be interesting to see where Kilicsoy plies his trade next year if he leaves Besiktas.
