Everton striker Oumar Niasse is reportedly a summer target for Galatasaray.
According to claims from the Turkish media, as cited in a report from the Daily Post, the Senegalese forward is wanted by Fatih Terim ahead of next season.
Niasse’s future at Everton is currently under scrutiny after a difficult period at the club. The forward was reintegrated into the first-team squad last season but question marks remain over whether or not he is required at the club.
It’s reported that officials from Galatasaray will travel to England to stage negotiations with Everton over a potential move for Niasse, but it is unclear whether or not the Toffees will allow the forward to move on.
Marco Silva is likely to become the new Everton manager and he worked alongside Niasse during his stint at Hull City. The ex-Lokomotiv Moscow striker enjoyed success at the KCOM Stadium under Silva, which could indicate that a reunion at Goodison Park may be on the cards ahead of next season.
Niasse, who joined Everton for £13.5m under Roberto Martinez, will be hoping to secure first-team football next season, regardless of whether or not that is on Merseyside.
