Former Oxford United midfielder Dean Whitehead hopes his move to Turkish football will help him towards his long-term goal of becoming a manager.

The 40-year old from Abingdon joined the coaching staff at the Istanbul club Be艧ikta艧 in July after previously working with Huddersfield's U23's and as an assistant at Shrewsbury Town.

Whitehead reached the Premier League as a player and has his sights set on getting the experience needed to one day become a first team boss.
