Barcelona Club announced the transfer of its Bosnian midfielder Miralem Pjanic to Besiktas, Istanbul, until the end of the current season.

“Barcelona and Besiktas have reached an agreement to loan Miralem Pjanic until June 30, 2022,” the club said on its official website.

Miralem Pjanic joined the Camp Nou for 60 million euros in the summer of 2020, from Juventus, who has defended his colors since 2016.

The Turkish club welcomed its new player, stressing that “Miralem Pjanic will provide important services to our club and the Besiktas family.”

Pjanic was receiving great attention from Juventus and Fiorentina, but his huge salary prevented him from leaving Barcelona Club during the summer Mercato.

The current Turkish League champion said in a statement that a loan contract was concluded with professional footballer Miralem Pjanic and his club, explaining: “Our company will pay the player a net amount of 2.75 million euros for the 2021-2022 season,” confirming the arrival of the Bosnian player.

The official Turkish TV channel TRT indicated that Pjanic’s salary in Barcelona was estimated at 9.5 million euros.

The 31-year-old midfielder participated during the 2020-2021 season in a total of 30 matches, while during the first three rounds of the current season he did not participate not even a single minute.
