Real Madrid hero Guti: I want Besiktas move

Real Madrid midfielder Guti admits he wants a move to Besiktas.

Guti has been in Istanbul this week for talks with Bernd Schuster's Besiktas about a lucrative move to the Turkish giants.

He told Marca: "I continue to be a player of Real Madrid. It is true that I have received an interesting offer from Besiktas in Turkey and the truth is that it is a place where I want to go, especially because of [Bernd] Schuster, who is their coach."

"But nothing has been finalised yet. I will try to talk to the club [Real Madrid] on July 25 and from there we will see."

"The truth is I am very excited about this offer, but I know that Madrid will have the last word in the end because I have a year left on my current contract."

When asked if a move to Istanbul is imminent, the midfielder said: "I cannot answer [this question] because I do not know. What I want to do is talk to Jorge [Valdano, los Blancos' general manager] and the president [Florentino Perez] and from there we will decide."
