Former Chelsea striker Demba Ba is set to make his Besiktas debut today - in England.
Ba is set to make his debut for new club Besiktas in the unlikely surroundings of Macclesfield Town's Moss Rose ground on Wednesday night.
Ba, who completed his £8million signing in Istanbul last week, has returned immediately to England to join up with his team-mates on pre-season tour.
The 29-year-old Senegal star is likely to play for Besiktas against German club Mainz as manager ex-West Ham and Everton player Slaven Bilic prepares for their Champions League third qualifying round tie against Feyenoord.
