"Atletico Madrid has launched a shock move for Besiktas winger Ricardo Quaresma, according to reports from Turkey.

Lig TV claims Atleti submitted a €20 million bid for the Portuguese star's services, which was allegedly rejected by Besiktas, who are demanding a fee closer to €30m.

The Spanish giants are also said to be considering another approach for Galatasaray captain Arda Turan as they prepare to overhaul their squad in the summer.

Besiktas and Atleti have enjoyed good relations recently, with Simao Sabrosa moving to Turkey in January from the Vicente Calderon.

While Turan is though to remain their first-choice target, a move for Quaresma could still be possible, with The Black Eagles interested in the capital club's unsettled striker Diego Forlan, who could potentially be included in the deal."
