Quique Setién, the experienced Spanish coach, is facing a new challenge in his career after being fired from Villarreal a few months ago. The Cantabrian coach is about to embark on a new adventure abroad and the destination seems to be Turkey’s Besiktas.
Rumors about Setién’s possible arrival at Besiktas have increased in recent days and it is reported that there have been preliminary contacts between both parties. Although a final agreement has not yet been reached, talks are ongoing and it could be a matter of time before Setien officially takes charge of the team.

Besiktas, a club with a rich history and tradition in Turkish football, is experiencing a difficult season in terms of qualification. They currently sit sixth in the table, 18 points behind the lead shared by Fenerbahce and Galatasaray. A performance that fell short of expectations led to the dismissal of their previous coach Riza Calimbay following a home defeat against Ankaragucu.
His tactical style is most popular in Istanbul
Setién’s arrival at Besiktas could mark a turning point in the team’s season. With his tactical approach and experience in managing high-profile teams, Setién is expected to work to improve the team’s performance and aim for a recovery in the second half of the season.
