West Ham reach agreement for Gokhan Tore
West Ham United will complete the signing of Besiktas winger Gokhan Tore after they settled on a transfer sum for his services.
The Hammers have had the player on their radar for some while but struggled to finalize a price with the Turkish champions.
According to The Express, the 24-year-old will complete his preferred move to East London in the coming week with the Hammers having agreed to pay a fee of around £10.6m for the transfer.
Slaven Bilic's team had initially pursued a loan agreement for the Turkey international before Besiktas' reluctance enticed them to negotiate a permanent fee.
Tore, who was on the Chelsea books between 2009 and 2011, netted six goals and seven assists for Besiktas last term.
