Besiktas: Vlahovic would prefer big 5 leagues, Salah talks have stalled
Besiktas has been linked with several high-profile attacking targets ahead of the next transfer window. President Hasan Arat indicated that Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic would prefer to remain in one of Europe's top five leagues, making a move to Turkey unlikely.
