Through his agent João Araújo, Rafa has expressed a desire to leave in a way that does not harm either party. He is forgoing the salaries he is due to receive until 2027 and is asking Besiktas to consider the situation and lower their 15 million euro transfer demand.

According to A Bola, Rafa has a desire to leave and may even consider ending his career. Besiktas has promised to clarify the situation at a press conference next Saturday, which the president and the coach will attend.

There are significant links between Rafa Silva and Saudi clubs. Recent reports suggest that interest from Saudi Arabia is increasing. It is expected that the Black and White club will be approached during the transfer window.

A report from Fanatik stated that Rafa Silva could be transferred to a team from Saudi Arabia during the winter transfer window. The report alleges that Rafa Silva is unhappy and open to leaving. It also suggests that the Beşiktaş management could consider selling him if a high transfer fee offer is received and if the player wants to leave.

Saudi Arabian clubs have shown interest in Beşiktaş's Portuguese player, Rafa Silva. Despite Rafa Silva's wish to stay at Beşiktaş, he is reportedly open to offers. Additionally, the anticipated appointment of Sergen Yalçın as the team's manager, who wants to keep Rafa as the team's leader on the field, has led the management to be reluctant about the transfer.

Rafa Silva is reportedly unhappy with the fans' criticism of the team and is open to leaving Besiktas in January. The interim president of the club, Huseyin Yucel, confirmed that they are willing to sell him if a good offer comes in, despite stating that Rafa is happy in Turkey. Yucel emphasized that Rafa is disturbed by the current sporting situation but expressed hope for his recovery.
