Manchester City are known for signing young talent from foreign clubs, as seen in their previous summer transfer window where they acquired Jeremy Doku and Josko Gvardiol, both aged 21. As the upcoming summer transfer window approaches, City is reportedly preparing a £25m bid to sign 18-year-old Semih Kilicsoy from Besiktas on a five-year deal. Kilicsoy has attracted interest from other clubs, including Tottenham Hotspur, Atletico Madrid, and Borussia Dortmund, due to his impressive performance of scoring 42 goals in 72 appearances for Besiktas’ youth teams.
Semih Kilicsoy made his senior debut for Besiktas in February 2023 and has since scored 11 goals in 33 appearances for the Turkish side. This season, he has been in top form, scoring 10 goals in 19 Turkish League appearances and being named Besiktas’ top goalscorer. His performance has earned him a high season rating of 7.03/10 from WhoScored, making him the second-highest-rated player at the club with more than 10 league appearances. Kilicsoy’s impressive statistics and potential have caught the attention of several clubs ahead of the upcoming summer transfer window.
As a highly sought-after young talent, Semih Kilicsoy’s goal-scoring ability and overall performance for Besiktas have made him a target for Manchester City and other top clubs. With a reported £25m bid being prepared by City for the 18-year-old striker, it is clear that they see his potential and are willing to invest in him for the future. Kilicsoy’s performance in the Turkish League and his status as a rising star in football have put him on the radar of clubs like City, indicating that he could be a valuable addition to their squad in the upcoming transfer window.
