Turkish giants Fenerbahce are reportedly planning a shock move for West Ham playmaker Manuel Lanzini.
According to Posta, cited by Sport Witness, Fenerbahce chiefs have identified Lanzini as a potential replacement for the departing Mathieu Valbuena.
The report claims that West Ham would be willing to sell the Argentine this summer, which seems surprising considering the Hammers were preparing to offer the midfielder a new deal last month.
They go on to add that Fenerbahce’s sporting director Damien Comolli will fly to England to in the coming weeks to discuss a potential deal for the creative midfielder.
The 26-year-old has been with the Hammers since 2016 and the club have the option to extend his stay with the club until 2022.
Lanzini made just 10 appearances under Manuel Pellegrini last season due to a serious knee problem, scoring in the final league game of the season against Watford, and selling the playmaker could divide opinion at the London Stadium.
