Solskjaer and Besiktas went from narrow victory in the Süper Lig, to a disappointing 1-1 result against Lausanne in the Conference League play-off. The “Eagle of the North” is under strong pressure, a win against the Swiss club in the second leg must be won on Thursday. On Tuesday, a piece of good news ticked in for the Besiktas supporters.
El Bilal Touré joins from Atalanta on loan for the season. This is a very exciting player with 17 first-team appearances and 3 goals for the Serie A club. The 23-year-old has a solid background with 68 appearances for Ligue 1 club Reims (9 goals), 22 appearances for La Liga club Almeira (7 goals), plus a loan spell at Stuttgart last season, where the striker made 17 appearances for Sebastian Hoeness (with 3 goals).
