A report claims that Ricardo Quaresma will reject the chance to sign a new Besiktas contract in favour of moving to the Chinese Super League.

Ricardo Quaresma will reportedly reject the chance to sign a new contract with Besiktas in favour of moving to the Chinese Super League.

The Portuguese international re-joined Besiktas from Porto in 2015 and has scored eight times in 53 appearances for the Turkish outfit, including three goals in the Champions League this season.

It is understood that Besiktas are desperate to tie the 33-year-old to a fresh contract, but according to FotoMac, the experienced midfielder's head has been turned by the money on offer in China.

Quaresma, who was part of the Portugal squad that won Euro 2016, started his professional career with Sporting Lisbon and has also represented Barcelona, Inter Milan and Chelsea.
