Basturk said:

“”I had contact with Blackburn for three months and I spoke to Tugay and he said it is a very good club and to come here and try the last few years,” he said.”

“He always told me how good a club Blackburn is and for the last three or four weeks he has often told me I should take this chance.”

And Rovers’ latest signing revealed that he plans to meet Tugay, who retired last year, to help him “settle in”.
