Club Career

Besiktas

Bobo was leading goalscorer of Besiktas in the 2006–07 season, with 20 goals in all competitions. He began the 2007–08 season by scoring three goals in the first three matches, most notably a pair of goals in the 3–0 victory over FC Sheriff in the Champions League second qualifying round. His early season form prompted the Besiktas board to agree an extension of his contract until 2011.

On 20 October 2007, Besiktas faced Trabzonspor, an encounter subject to intense media interest. Trabzonspor took an early lead through Gokdeniz Karadeniz and were 2–0 up by the sixth minute thanks to a goal from Ibrahima Yattara. However, a Burak Yilmaz header put Besiktas back into contention and a penalty from Matias Delgado equalized the score just before half-time. In the second half, Besiktas goalkeeper Rustu Recber was sent-off for handling outside of the penalty area in the 79th minute, and Bobo replaced him until the end of the match. He made several saves, helping Besiktas secure a vital away victory. Bobo later admitted he had been worried about Trabzonspor's attacks on goal, particularly a free-kick by playmaker Ceyhun Eris and a header by striker Umut Bulut.

On 25 October 2007, Bobo scored in Besiktas's 2–1 UEFA Champions League victory over Liverpool at the Inonu Stadium. He opened the scoring with a third-minute goal on 3 November 2007 in Besiktas' Super Lig 11th matchday clash with Fenerbahce at the Sukru Saracoglu Stadium, but the goal was followed by several misses as Besiktas ultimately lost 2–1, giving Fenerbahce their first home victory over Besiktas in six-and-a-half years. This was the 319th encounter between two club. The following weekend, Bobo scored again (his 38th goal for Besiktas) in a 1–2 defeat at home to in-form Sivasspor. With the goal, he broke Mersad K
