As a free agent, Walker-Peters is currently without a club after his contract with Southampton expired.

The 28-year-old defender has been linked to several teams, including Leeds United.

However, according to sources, Walker-Peters is in Istanbul for a medical examination and to discuss contract terms with Besiktas.

Walker-Peters had chosen not to sign a new contract with Southampton after the team's relegation from the top division last season.

He has been playing for Southampton since 2020.
