Barcelona star reveals which manager he sees in charge of West Ham next

West Ham manager Slaven Bilic faces an uncertain future at the club. The Daily Mirror recently reported that the Hammers will make a decision on the Croatian manager at the end of the season.

Barcelona star Arda Turan believes he has found a future candidate for the role of manager at West Ham.

Turan believes that Basaksehir boss Abdullah Avci would do a great job at the East London based outfit.

“Abdullah Avci is a genius, I believe he will get his shot outside of Turkey,” Turan told Fanatik in a recent interview.

“His tactics would probably be better appreciated abroad and he is one of the best coaches I have worked with. 

“He would do a great job at West Ham, put him in charge of West Ham and nobody would be disappointed.”

Avci has worked wonders at Basaksehir transforming the Istanbul minnows from relegation strugglers into title challengers.

Basaksehir are currently second in the league just two points behind Bilic’s former side Besiktas.

If Avci does go onto lead Basaksehir to the league title it would be an achievement similar in magnitude to Leicester City winning the Premier League.

Avci has never managed outside Turkey but he has almost guaranteed Basaksehir Champions League football next season.

The 53-year-old coach has been in charge of the Istanbul based side since 2014 and has guaranteed his side top four football for the past two seasons.
