The Panamanian footballer Michael Amir Murillo traveled to Turkey to negotiate his transfer to Besiktas, a club that plays in the country's top division. The team was founded in 1903 and its football section competes in the Turkish Super League. Besiktas has also won the Turkish Cup 16 times, the Turkish Super Cup 10 times, the President's Cup 6 times, and the Atatürk Cup once. In recent weeks, the Panamanian player faced some controversies with Italian coach Roberto De Zerbi, who relegated Murillo to the reserve team, citing a decline in the player's form. In this way, Murillo would end his cycle at Olympique de Marseille in France's Ligue 1. In this regard, fans of the French team claimed on social media that De Zerbi's decision was disproportionate and that he treated the Panamanian in a way he did not dare to do with other players, clearly referring to the heavyweights in the dressing room. At the European level, the club has played over 20 matches in the UEFA Champions League, Europa League, and also participated in the old Cup Winners' Cup. Hasan Arat is the current president of the team, and it is coached by Sergen Yalçın.
