The decision is now on the player’s side, and we expect a response soon.’He added that Besiktas had reviewed every requested increase and amendment throughout the negotiations while keeping the club’s interests in mind before putting forward its last proposal.Salah, now 34, has offers from elsewhere too including the MLS where Sporting Kansas City have made a lucrative two-year contract proposal.

A tough game against obviously one of the best teams in England.’After that, I found out I got signed. It was just a phone call, and it was a massive relief because, obviously, when you leave a club before, it’s quite nerve-racking; you don’t know what to expect. So, to get that call was a massive relief.’Newcastle turn to Hornicek after he rejected Hull move Newcastle United have switched sights to Sporting Braga goalkeeper Lukas Hornicek.The 24-year-old Czech Republic international was the subject of a failed bid by Hull City earlier in the window and Benfica have been making enquiries in the past week.Hull even matched his £25.9m release clause but Hornicek turned down the move.’We even had one [a concrete approach].
