Everton and Leicester City players remain on manager’s wanted list

Fotomac today report Everton’s Oumar Niasse and Leicester City’s Shinji Okazaki remain targets for Galatasaray ahead of the next transfer window.

The two Premier League attackers have been linked with the Istanbul club in recent weeks.

According to Fotomac, Galatasaray are keen to bring in a forward in the new year after last season’s top scorer Bafetimbi Gomis was sold in the summer.

The Turkish club’s manager Faith Terim wants to address this in January with Niasse and Okazaki said to be on his wanted list. Alaves forward John Guidetti and Marseille’s Kostas Mitroglou are also reported options for Terim.

Everton forward Niasse has been linked with a move to Galatasaray in previous transfer windows with a claim last month he’d shaken hands on a move. An agreement couldn’t be found with Everton, but it seems the Istanbul club will make another attempt to land him.

More recently there were reports Galatasaray were interested in Leicester City’s Okazaki and looking to move in on the Japan international. The 32 year old has played just three Premier League games for Leicester City this season and could look to find a new club.
