West Ham are set to open talks over a deal to sign Besiktas midfielder Gary Medel in the coming days.
According to Turkish outlet Milliyet, via Sport Witness, West Ham are to begin negotiations to sign Medel in the January transfer window.
The report claims that Hammers boss Manuel Pellegrini is a big fan of Medel and wants to add him to his midfield options.
Medel has Premier League experience, having played 34 games for Cardiff in the 2013/14 season.
Despite Cardiff’s relegation, Medel impressed that year and earned himself a move to Inter Milan in Italy.
After making over 100 appearances for Inter, Medel joined Besiktas in 2017 and has been a key figure in their squad ever since.
West Ham are willing to pay a good fee for Medel and are keen to get the deal over the line as soon as possible.
