"Provocative words from the Beşiktaş football player to President Hüseyin Yücel."

After the resignation of Hasan Arat in Beşiktaş, Hüseyin Yücel, who took over the presidency and is also a candidate in the election to be held on Sunday, received a response from Arthur Masuaku, whom Yücel criticized, that will be widely discussed.

"EVERYONE SHOULD LOOK AHEAD"

Masuaku, who accused President Hüseyin Yücel and his team, stated, "The president came on screen and targeted me by mentioning my name. This is unacceptable. Yes, we are not doing well. However, shifting all the blame onto me does not absolve him of his responsibilities. Everyone should look ahead. I do not want to stay in such an environment any longer," expressing his desire to leave.

CONTRACT TO BE TERMINATED

With all ties to the team severed, it is expected that Masuaku's contract will be mutually terminated during the transfer window. The Democratic Congolese footballer decided to leave the team without waiting for his contract, which ends in June 2025, following these developments. The experienced left-back called his manager to Istanbul to negotiate his departure and to find a new club.

FANS ARE REACTING TO MASUAKU

Masuaku has been criticized by black-and-white fans for a long time. The 31-year-old player was booed by the fans when he entered the game and every time the ball came to him during the last match against Alanyaspor.

WHAT DID HÜSEYİN YÜCEL SAY?

Beşiktaş President Hüseyin Yücel initially stated, "I also have a lot of reactions to Arthur Masuaku. He is the only player who issued a warning to the club during the period when salaries were delayed." Regarding Masuaku's protest during the Alanyaspor match, Yücel said, "It was a mistake for him to enter the game. There was a very serious reaction, and the balance of the team was disrupted. We suffered a loss in a match we could have won. I do not find the fans unjustified," continuing his stance on Masuaku.

MASUAKU'S CAREER AT BEŞIKTAŞ

Beşiktaş acquired Arthur Masuaku's transfer from West Ham United for 2 million euros on April 17, 2023, after he played on loan during the 2022-23 season, signing a 2+1 year contract at 1.2 million euros. The Democratic Congolese player has played in 23 matches this season, scoring 1 goal and providing 5 assists. In 2.5 years, he has made 84 official appearances in the black-and-white jersey, contributing directly to 16 goals with 3 goals and 13 assists. During this period, Masuaku experienced 1 Super Cup and 1 Turkish Cup championship.
