Manchester United, Arsenal and Valencia are all interested in signing Besiktas midfielder Oguzhan Ozyakup, who is also linked with a move to West Ham.
Spanish source Deporte Valenciano have claimed that both Arsene Wenger Jose Mourinho is interested in signing the 23-year-old midfielder who was once part of the Arsenal youth set up.
The Gunners signed Ozyakup to their academy from AZ Alkmaar in 2008 where he spent four years and never made a Premier League appearance for Arsenal before joining Besiktas in a £350,000 deal in 2012.
Ozyakup worked with Slaven Bilic during his two years as Besiktas manager and he recently branded the midfielder as the ‘Turkish Mesut Ozil’ during his time with ITV working Euro 2016.
Capped 23 times by Turkey, Ozyakup has two years left to run on his contract with Besiktas who are willing to cash-in on the midfielder should an offer of €20m (£16.8m) come in.
West Ham have been linked with a move for the former Arsenal starlet earlier this summer but are yet to make an official bid.
