Confirmed. The Turkish grandee has invited a recent European Cup finalist to take over as coach

The coaching shuffle at Turkish Besiktas has led to the fact that the team has already got its seventh manager in the last seven months. This time, the club from the banks of the Bosphorus employed Giovanni van Bronckhorst as head coach.

The Turkish Grand informed about the appointment on its official resources, stating that his contract with him runs until the end of June 2026 with an option to extend it for another year.

It is worth recalling that due to the constant rotation of coaches Besiktas completely failed in the Turkish championship, finishing in sixth place, and only the victory in the Cup allowed the "eagles" next season to taste the taste of European football, getting a ticket to the play-off round of Europa League qualification.

It was in this tournament in the 2021/2022 season that van Brockhorst was one step away from triumph, losing in a penalty shoot-out in his final match as Rangers manager to Eintracht Frankfurt. As a coach, he triumphed in the Dutch championship with Feyenoord, and at the helm of a Glasgow team a Scottish Cup.
