The German goalkeeper seems to be settling in well at Besiktas, where he's picked up a few new fans.

“I love the Bosphorus, I really want to live in a place with a view of the sea,” he said, before going on to mention the attention he's been getting from fans. Specifically female ones. The 25-year-old has instantly become a big hit with Besiktas' female supporters, who have dubbed him 'Casanova' due to his boyband-friendly looks. "I did not have this many fans in England and I can say most seem to be female,” he added. “Whenever I am out and about in Istanbul whoever recognizes me wants a photograph.”
