Besiktas vice-president Ahmet Nur Cebi has stated that West Ham target Gokhan Tore would be available if an offer of €30 million (£24 million) arrived this summer.

The Hammers have been heavily linked with a move for the former Chelsea attacker, who is regarded as one of the best players in Turkish football.

Tore spent two years on the books of the Stamford Bridge club before moving to Hamburg in Germany.

Since moving back to his homeland the 24-year-old has thrived and is now an important player for both club and country.

Nur Cebi has spoken out about the continued rumours linking Tore with a Besiktas exit and named his price for the star.

“If they give €30 million we would have to think about it, we have to think about business as well,” Turkish Football quote the representative as saying.

West Ham boss Slaven Bilic knows Tore well from his time managing Besiktas and has stated in the recent past that he would love to bring the Turk to the London club if he became available.
