DONE DEAL: Besiktas sign Barcelona midfielder Miralem Pjanic

Besiktas have snapped up Barcelona midfielder Miralem Pjanic.

The 31 year-old had been pushing to return to Juventus over the summer market.

However, Pjanic has now joined Besiktas on a season-long loan.

Besiktas have announced the signing of the former Juve and Roma star on loan until the end of the season, but the Turkish club will only pay €2.7m of his €8m-a-year salary.
