Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur have both been linked with a move for Besiktas ace Anderson Talisca.
Besiktas playmaker Anderson Talisca has told Correio in his native Brazil that there is interest from English teams, but he hasn’t agreed any transfer.
Talisca, 24, became a sensation with Benfica during the 2014-15 campaign, hitting 11 goals to earn interest from a host of clubs before notching just three league goals in the next season.
The Brazilian star was farmed out on loan to Besiktas in 2016, and has recaptured his scintillating form, hitting 17 goals in 33 games last season as well as 20 goals in 45 outings this term.
Talisca could return to Benfica this summer at the end of his loan deal, but with Besiktas allegedly having the option to make the move permanent, the Turkish side could sign him and cash in instantly.
Recent reports from Fanatik in Turkey reported that Talisca could end up with one of four English clubs, as Arsenal, Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur and Wolverhampton Wanderers are keen on Talisca.
It remains to be seen if any teams do firm up their interest in Talisca, a versatile playmaker who can play as a central midfielder, number 10 or even as a striker, but Talisca has claimed that the interest is very much real.
Speaking to Correio in his native Brazil, Talisca has revealed that there is interest from English clubs, but he has not agreed a move anywhere and can not speak of negotiations with any club.
“There is interest, there is, but there is nothing certain,” said Talisca. “I have not agreed anything yet. It’s just speculation. These things of negotiations, I can not speak,” he added.
