Besiktas have completed the signing of Manchester United’s young Portuguese forward Bebe on loan. Bebe, 20, will be with the Turkish giants for the whole of the 2011/2012 season.
Bebe was signed by United from Guimaraes for £7.4m in what was one of the most unexpected transfers last summer. He made a total of seven first team appearances at United ( including only two league appearances) but scored for the Premier League champions in both the Carling Cup and the Champions League.
Bebe’s performances at Besiktas could well decide the course of his future at United. He has already been written off by several pundits as a transfer gamble not paying off but a good season at Besiktas could see him move back into Sir Alex’s good books at OT.
