West Ham are interested in a move for Trabzonspor goalkeeper Onur Kivrak, according to Turkish website F5haber.com.
Kivrak is Trabzonspor’s captain and has been nicknamed the ‘Butterfly” because of his spectacular saves. The 29 year old has been at his current club for nine years and Hammers boss Slaven Bilic would no doubt be aware of the player after his two year spell in charge at Besiktas.
F5haber report that West Ham have previously made an “official proposal” for Kivrak but Trabzonspor turned down the offer as they felt they couldn’t sell their club captain during the club’s 50 year anniversary. They say that may change in the future though.
This season, Kivrak has played 27 times, conceded 27 goals and kept 13 clean sheets. West Ham may be looking for a new number one with both first team goalkeepers Darren Randolph and Adrian struggling for form and making errors this season. Whether Kivrak is the answer though, remains to be seen.
