Galatasaray have joined West Ham in the race to sign Chievo Verona star Samuel Bastien, according to L’Equipe.
Everton, Nice and Napoli are also interested in the 21-year-old, so the Hammers will have to beat off a lot of competition in order to secure a deal for the Belgian midfielder.
The Belgian U21 international has less than a year remaining on his contract with Verona, so the Serie A side could look to sell him this summer, rather than losing him for free in 2019.

Whilst West Ham are keen to bring Bastien to the London Stadium, both Galatasaray and Napoli can offer him Champions League football, which the Hammers obviously can not, and that could prove to be a major stumbling block in any potential deal.
However, West Ham look like they’ll still pursue a move for the Belgian, in the hope that he decides that a transfer to the Hammers is the best move he can make at this time.
