West Ham target Gary Medel keen on Premier League return

West Ham target Gary Medel is reportedly keen on a return to the Premier League this summer, according to the Turkish media, cited by Sports Witness. 

The Chile international has been on West Ham’s radar for the past 12 months, with Manuel Pellegrini keen on bringing his fellow countryman to the London Stadium. 

The Hammers reportedly tried to sign the player last summer but a move never materialised, however, the latest reports suggest that the midfielder and his family are all now keen on a move back to the Premier League. 

Medel, who previously spent a season in the Premier League with Cardiff City, currently plies his trade with Besiktas and has a year left on his current deal. 

West Ham have already added to their midfield ranks with Pablo Fornals completing a £24m move from La Liga side Villarreal, and Medel may well be the next high profile addition following the latest report.
