Super Eagles defender, Elderson Echiejile has waved off speculations that he signed for Turkish side Besiktas, but rather his focus is on how to stop the Flames of Malawi from gaining any ground in today’s world cup qualifier at the U.J Esuene Stadium in Calabar.

“It’s not true that I have signed for Besiktas. There was no agreement between Braga and Besiktas. I am still a player of Braga,” the Nigeria left back, whose contract at Braga is till June 2014, said on his official website www.elderson3.com

He will also go on his twitter handle @eldersonech to deny this transfer, while insisting his is focused on Saturday’s World Cup qualifier against Malawi in Calabar.

“Please disregard any report that I have signed for Besiktas. I’m still a player of sporting Braga,” he tweeted.

“Everything about a transfer is behind me as I’m focused on Saturday’s match against Malawi.”

According to various other media sources, Sporting Braga reached an agreement with Besiktas on the Nigeria player, who has signed a two-year deal.

The reports erroneously said Elderson, who was valued at about three million Euros was sold for 600,000 Euros.

Elderson has been lately linked with various clubs including Besiktas and Norwich City, Fulham and Everton in the English Premier League.
