The Black Stars defender made an impressive mark on his official debut for the Turkish club on Thursday night.
The defender recently joined the Turkish Super Lig team on a free transfer, leaving his previous stay in England behind.
Although he missed out on a starting role in Besiktas’ UEFA Europa Conference League playoffs against Albanian outfit KF Tirana, Amartey was brought into the game during the break to bolster the team’s defense.
In his debut, just ten minutes after coming on, the Black Stars center-back scored a fantastic goal, propelling Besiktas into the lead.
His goal proved to be an inspiration for the Turkish side, as veteran forward Vincent Aboubakar scored a second goal in the 76th minute.
With a convincing 2-0 victory today, Besiktas secured their advancement to the next round of the playoff with an impressive 5-1 aggregate win over KF Tirana.
Besiktas will now face Neftçi PFK in the 3rd Qualifying Round of the UEFA Conference League, and Amartey’s promising debut has undoubtedly raised expectations for his contributions to the team’s future success in the competition.
