According to a claim in the Turkish media, Galatasaray are showing interest in West Ham United defender Vladimír Coufal.

The Turkish side have made it one of their priorities to sign a right back this summer with Serge Aurier set to be released at the end of this month.

Aspor report Galatasaray have a list of potential right backs that they could bring in this summer as they look to replace Aurier. It’s claimed the West Ham defender is an option at this stage and they’re hoping to take advantage of his contract situation with the Hammers.

Coufal’s contract expires next summer after West Ham activated their option to extend it for another season back in January. However, it still means the player will be a free agent in 12 months time which could be a concern for West Ham.

Gala will reportedly wait until after Euro 2024 has finished to make a move for the Czech international. Coufal is expected to start for his country when they face Turkey today.

He made 46 appearances for the east London side last season.
