FORMER Rangers keeper Allan McGregor has finalised his move to Turkish club Besiktas, signing a two-year deal yesterday after passing a medical in Istanbul. The Scotland shot-stopper is expected to be unveiled by the Super Lig side at a news conference today, having agreed a deal which will earn him just over £18,000 a week. The Turkish club confirmed on its official website: âFormer Glasgow Rangers goalkeeper Allan McGregor has agreed to a two-year deal with the Eagles.â Speaking in an interview on his new clubâs television channel, BJK TV, which was shown on STV, McGregor said: âItâs a big club, with a big tradition. âSupposedly, they have great fans and a lot of noise in the stadium so Iâm excited. Iâll just give my all.â The head of Besiktasâs football committee, Tamer Kiran, said. âI spent an hour with Allan last night. He is a very good professional and we believe he will deliver our teamâs objectives.â Besiktas will now apply to the Turkish FA for an International Transfer Certificate for the move to go through. But they are likely to have problems gaining clearance as Rangers owner Charles Green believes they are due a transfer fee. McGregor was one of nine players who refused to transfer their contracts to Sevco Scotland Limited, exercising his right under TUPE rules to terminate his deal. FIFA have already issued temporary ITCs for a number of his former team-mates, meaning the keeper could be free to play pre-season and competitive games until the dispute is settled. McGregor, who has 20 international caps and is Scotlandâs No.1, had been a Rangers player since 1998, making over 200 appearances for the Ibrox side and winning three league titles and eight cups. ----------------------------- Was a solid player for us and always thought he could do a job in the EPL.
