Fanatik have claimed the West Ham United have won the race for Badou N’Diaye, after having a bid of £8.5m accepted by Turkish side Osmanlıspor. The midfielder was also linked with a move to Crystal Palace.
Milliyet have also reported Crystal Palace’s offer for N’Diaye was rejected by Osmanlıspor because it didn’t meet their valuation of the player.
The 26-year old could be a good signing for West Ham as his physical and technical attributes are well suited to the Premier League. N’Diaye can play both as a No.8 and No.10, so it seems West Ham manager Slaven Bilic will have a versatile player within his ranks should the deal go through.
N’Diaye joined Osmanlıspor from Bodo Glimt for €350K two seasons ago and has scored 18 goals in 77 appearances for the Turkish club.
