Víctor Ruiz terminates with Besiktas unilaterally

Víctor Ruíz has unilaterally terminated his contract with Besiktas despite having two years left on his contract. AS has been telling the situation and the player's intentions. The Valencia and Villarreal excentral were living in a difficult moment at Besiktas since they have not received a salary in the last three months. His lawyer had recently sent a warning letter to the Turkish club regarding their salaries for March, April and May, which had not been paid. Last Friday was the last day for the Turkish club to pay him, but they have not.

The 31-year-old footballer, who was transferred to Besiktas from Villarreal last summer for 2.5 million euros, had the right to request the release of FIFA for non-payment and has done so. Besiktas, meanwhile, has informed of the player's decision and the entity's intention to take legal action. The Turkish club has issued the following statement.

“Víctor Ruiz Torre, who came transferred to our club from Villareal last summer, informed us that he has unilaterally terminated his contract that ends on 06-30-2022. Although our club made all payments before the pandemic to the player, Víctor Ruiz Torre did not accept the negotiation on the payments that cover the period of the pandemic and requested that the interrupted period be paid separately before the end of the season. The termination of the player will unilaterally be transferred to the sports trial, and we inform our people and to the public that attempts will be made without wasting time in accordance with the interests of our club. “
