Beşiktaş JK has made André-Frank Zambo Anguissa the centerpiece of their summer transfer window. The SSC Napoli midfielder’s profile is a perfect fit for the coaching staff: physical presence, work rate, and international experience.

But this deal is far from straightforward. Napoli has set the bar high, demanding a transfer fee between 20 and 25 million euros. This hefty price tag forces Beşiktaş to rethink their strategy, opting for patience over haste. In this context, the Turkish club is hoping that the Italian side may soften their stance as the summer market approaches. The black-and-white management remains vigilant, ready to move quickly if a financial opportunity arises.

Meanwhile, the Cameroonian midfielder remains focused on his season, though he is also attracting interest from other European clubs, which could further complicate Beşiktaş’s pursuit. For now, the Anguissa saga remains open, but with no concrete progress between the two clubs.
