Reports from Turkey (via Football London) state that West Ham had made an £8 million for Osmanlispor forward Badou N’Diaye.

N’Diaye, 26, has spent the last two seasons with the Super Lig side after making the move from Bodø/Glimt, Norway in 2015 in a deal worth a reported £300,000.

The forward – who can also operate as an attacking midfielder in behind the strikers or even a winger – enjoyed a successful first season in Turkey, scoring 11 times in 33 appearances during the 2015/16 campaign, helping his side to an impressive 5th placed finish.

While the most recent campaign may not have been as successful for his club, with Osmanlispor finishing 13th in the Turkish top flight, N’Diaye’s good form continued, as he scored a further 7 times and notched 3 assists in just over 30 appearances.

N’Diaye has spoken about his future recently and is quoted as saying: “I will definitely leave Turkey. My new team will be in the Premier League.”

The forward has made 8 international appearances for Senegal, scoring 1 goal.
