Lig TV’s Sansal Büyüka has claimed Everton’s misfit Oumar Baye Niasse is a transfer target for Besiktas along with Porto’s Vincent Aboubakar, and Chelsea’s Loic Remy.
A £13M signing by Roberto Martinez, Niasse had a disastrous first 7 months in English football after joining from Lokomotiv Moscow.
The Senegalese striker only played 145 minutes of Premier League football at the Toffees, and new boss Ronald Koeman said last week that ”He needs to move if he wants to play football.”
Oumar Niasse is no-stranger to the Turkish Super League as he previously played at Akhisar Belediyespor, scoring 13 goals in his only season for the club before joining Lokomotiv Moscow in a club-record deal worth around £6 million.
Niasse continued his great form in Russia and scored 13 goals in 23 appearances before his move to Everton.
The 26-year old was a transfer target for Galatasaray for the last two transfer-windows, but Galatasaray decided to sign Swiss striker Eren Derdiyok instead.
