Ex-Rangers boss Van Bronckhorst launches savage cull at Besiktas with TEN players for sale including Celtic-linked star
One of the other names on the list has a £35m transfer on his resume

That's amid reports in Turkey that the club have put no fewer than TEN first-team stars up for sale.

The name which has been hogging most of the headlines is former Arsenal and Liverpool star Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
The 30-year-old only joined the Turkish side in a free transfer last August and has since made 30 appearances.
But a number of English clubs are on alert with the news that Besiktas could move on from the star after just one year.
Oxlade-Chamberlain previously joined Liverpool in a £35million transfer from Arsenal but struggled to get regular game time due to various injury issues.

And Celtic fans will be interested to hear that former Leicester City midfielder Daniel Amartey is another man of Van Bronckhorst's list.
The 29-year-old worked with Brendan Rodgers at Leicester and could provide an experienced midfield screen or even ball playing central defender for the Hoops - who have Champions League fixtures to contend with this season.
Another former Premier League star who could be on the move is Arthur Masuaku - as well as Cameroon legend Vincent Aboubakar and ex-AC Milan forward Ante Rebic.
Jean Onana, Valentin Rosier, Omar Colley, Javi Montero and Ersin Destanoglu are the remaining players on the list.
