Besiktas are said to be keen on securing a deal for West Ham striker Javier Hernandez in the January transfer window.
The Mexican forward has fallen out of favour at the London Stadium this season following Manuel Pellegrini’s appointment as the club’s new first team manager.
Hernandez has been limited largely to cameo appearances from the bench, with Marko Arnautovic selected as Pellegrini’s first-choice striker throughout the season.
This has prompted speculation linking the former Manchester United man with a move away from West Ham in January.
According to Turkish news outlet Fanatik, Besiktas are prepared to offer Hernandez a route out of the Premier League and will pursue an initial loan deal when the transfer window opens.
It’s reported that the Super Lig club’s president Fikret Orman will travel to London in the near future to meet representatives from West Ham as he looks to seal a deal for Hernandez.
Fanatik indicate that the agreement would be an initial loan, with Besiktas granted an option to buy at the end of the season.
