Beşiktaş are weighing up a move for OGC Nice forward Terem Moffi as they prepare for the expected departure of Tammy Abraham, who is close to completing an £18 million transfer to Aston Villa.

Abraham is set to return to the Premier League after agreeing terms with Villa, with all major details already in place for the England international to seal his move this week.
Head coach Unai Emery has identified the striker as a key addition to bolster his attacking options, especially following Donyell Malen’s recent sale to Roma.
With Abraham’s exit imminent, Beşiktaş have stepped up efforts to identify a replacement and have placed Nigerian striker Terem Moffi high on their shortlist, according to reports from NTV Spor.
Moffi’s future at Nice remains uncertain.
The 25-year-old is understood to be unsettled after an incident last year involving an attack by Nice supporters, a situation that reportedly prompted him to approach league authorities over a possible contract termination.
While no formal offer has been submitted, Beşiktaş are closely monitoring developments surrounding the striker’s situation in France as they assess the feasibility of a move.
As Abraham edges closer to Villa Park, attention now shifts to whether Beşiktaş will firm up their interest in Moffi and make a decisive move to lead their attack ahead of the new season.
