Vlahovic Makes Comeback at Beşiktaş with Vincenzo Italiano

Dusan Vlahovic, whose contract with Juventus has expired, signed with Beşiktaş at the start of the season. After Fiorentina, the player has now reunited with head coach Vincenzo Italiano, this time in Istanbul.

Under Italiano, the black-and-whites are once again competing for the title this season, and the 26-year-old striker has carried his team with his goals in the Süper Lig. The experienced player has yet to celebrate a goal in European competitions, but he has scored 9 goals in the Süper Lig. The forward has found the net 9 times in 9 matches this season.

He scored his first Süper Lig goal against Çorum FK, in a match where he scored a hat trick. He then scored one goal each against Fenerbahçe, Amed Sportif Faaliyetler and Kocaelispor. The Serbian player scored 1 goal against Kasımpaşa and found the net twice in the 11th week against Gençlerbirliği. Vlahovic did not play in the matches against Eyüpspor and Erzurumspor, and he failed to score against Alanyaspor, Trabzonspor and İstanbul Başakşehir.

In the derby against Fenerbahçe, played in week 4 of the Süper Lig and won 2-1, he scored the goal that gave the black-and-whites victory. The striker scored his first derby goal of his Turkish career and was the architect of the 3 points in the derby.

Gift Orban leads the goalscoring standings with 10 goals, and he is joined on the same total by Victor Osimhen and Mohamed Salah in the race for the top scorer title. Vlahovic is in second place with 9 goals.
