Besiktas create over-the-top video for Loris Karius signing, immediately delete it

Besiktas

We love Besiktas

They rival the biggest clubs in the world when it comes to social media output, and their brand of “Come To Besiktas” transfer announcement videos have become the stuff of legend in recent years.

That video featured Pepe, invited on the phone by both Ricardo Quaresma and Alvaro Negredo to join them at the Turkish club.

Things have stepped up a bit lately, most notably with the production values in the Turkish Super Lig side’s videos, and they really went hell for leather with their latest video.

Welcoming Loris Karius to the club, their latest offering is about as atmospheric as you could imagine and even though it is wildly over the top, we admire their commitment to making announcement videos good.

Have a watch and judge for yourself.
