Trossard and Vlahović Lead Beşiktaş's Unbeaten Run in Domestic and European Campaigns
Beşiktaş has maintained an undefeated streak across both domestic and European competitions. In the Süper Lig, the team has started perfectly, setting up a highly anticipated clash with Fenerbahçe. On the European stage, Beşiktaş secured a 3-0 victory over Kauno Žalgiris, with goals from Oh Hyeon-gyu, Amir Murillo, and a penalty by Orkun Kökçü. They have also recorded strong performances against Midtjylland, featuring goals from Milot Rashica and another Kökçü penalty, and a recent goal by Semih Kılıçsoy against Hradec Králové.
Recent acquisitions Leandro Trossard and Dušan Vlahović have been pivotal to the club's offensive output. Trossard, acquired from Arsenal, was cited as the standout player in the recent match against Erzurumspor, while Vlahović has netted four goals in five games. In off-pitch news, Beşiktaş management issued a formal statement defending captain Orkun Kökçü following critical remarks from pundit Kaya Çilingiroğlu. Additionally, forward Oh Hyeon-gyu's performances have earned him a call-up to the South Korean national team.
