Osmanlıspor will today meet with West Ham officials to try and finalise the transfer deal for midfielder Badou N’Diaye, report Fanatik. The Turkish newspaper claim West Ham officials will arrive in Ankara to hopefully complete the signing of the 27 year old midfielder.
The Senegalese international has been linked with a move to the Premier League since the winter window, and it seems West Ham are close to winning the race to sign the player.
Should the move go through, and Fanatik say that’s ‘expected’, West Ham will pay a transfer fee in the region of £8.5m, and the player will then have to go through the formalities of a transfer.
N’Diaye joined Osmanlıspor from Bodo Glimt for €350K two seasons ago and became an integral part of the team. N’Diaye played 42 games for Osmanlıspor last season, scoring 7 goals.
West Ham are likely to be concentrating more on getting Javier Hernandez over the line, which could see this one take a back seat.
