Turkish Super Lig giants Beşiktaş are reportedly eyeing Nigerian striker Paul Onuachu as a potential replacement for Ciro Immobile, whose future at the club remains uncertain, Soccernet.NG reports.
Onuachu has drawn significant attention after an impressive season in Turkey in which he scored 17 goals and provided four assists in just 25 appearances. Known for his physical presence and clinical finishing, the former Trabzonspor star has emerged as a prime target for Beşiktaş as they aim to bolster their offensive lineup.
The interest in Onuachu stems from uncertainty surrounding Ciro Immobile, who joined Beşiktaş earlier in 2024 but is now linked with a potential departure. Should the Italian forward leave, Beşiktaş plans to move swiftly to secure Onuachu’s services, ensuring continuity in their attacking department.
