Jose Mourinho is considering offers from both Fenerbahce and Besiktas as he contemplates his next move in management.
The 61-year-old has been out of work since his dismissal from Roma in January and he is yet to make a decision on his future.
He is certainly not going to retire just yet and the Portuguese could be tempted into taking on a new league for him after managing in Portugal, England, Italy and Spain.
The two Turkish sides have approached Mourinho, with Besiktas vice-president Huseyin Yucel confirming that a financial agreement has been reached.
Yucal also suggested that former Besiktas and Chelsea player Ricardo Quaresma could join Mourinho in his coaching team.
‘We contacted Jose Mourinho a month ago and he welcomed our offer,’ said the Besiktas chief. ‘We already resolved the economic details and will go to Italy next week so we can meet face to face.
‘If we reach an agreement with Mourinho, then we will recommend he include Ricardo Quaresma in the staff.’

Speaking in March, the former Chelsea and Manchester United manager made it clear that he is not choosing to take a break from the game and is ready to take charge of a team as soon as the right opportunity presents itself.
Asked if he was ready to resume his coaching career, Mourinho told beIN Sport: ‘I’m not in a rest, I want to work
‘I want to work but I just don’t want to have the wrong decision. I have to wait for the right one, the one that motivates me. But if I could work tomorrow I would work tomorrow.’
