Okay Yokuşlu's agent discusses West Ham interest | OneFootball

The agent of reported West Ham target Okay Yokuşlu has admitted that a move there is a possibility but he doesn’t know where he will end up yet.

After an impressive season at Celta Vigo, the 25-year-old has been linked with a move away from Balaídos this summer.

Galatasaray and Tottenham Hotspur have also been monitoring the Turkey international, in addition to their London rivals.

In speaking with Goal about a potential move to West Ham or Spurs, Yokuşlu’s agent Batur Altiparmak did hint that a move appears likely.

“It is natural for there to be interest after the season that Okay had,” Altiparmak told Goal.com.

“There is interest from those sides in the Premier League and LaLiga too but for now, he is a Celta player and it would be wrong to mention other names.

“Any rumours about a move to Turkey are false though. He will be staying in Europe next season.”

The Hammers have had a long-standing interest in Yokuşlu, dating back to his time with Trabzonspor.

However, issues relating to obtaining a work permit for the midfielder scuppered any plans they had at time in securing his services.
