Yesterday, Athletic Bilbao issued a statement that Laporte was unable to register with the team due to the failure to submit the transfer documents on time and could not obtain the transfer proof. Therefore, the player's transfer to Biba failed.

According to Turkish media "Fanatik", Turkish Super League team Besiktas hopes to loan Laporte. The media said: "Besiktas has contacted the player's agent and expressed his desire to introduce players through loan. The players have also included Besiktas in consideration and are expected to announce his whereabouts within a few days."

Laporte, who plays as a central defender, played 30 games for Riyadh's victory in various games last season and scored 5 goals. His current German turnover price is 15 million euros.
