West Ham prepare £12m transfer bid for Senegal international striker

West Ham are preparing a £12 million transfer bid for Fenerbahçe striker Moussa Sow according to the Express.

Hammers boss Slaven Bilic is familiar with Sow from his time managing Beşiktaş over the past two seasons.

The Senegal international is reported to be happy at Fenerbahçe and still has another year left on his contract but has stated in the past that he wants to play Premier League football.

“My dream is to play in the Premier League, because you progress as a player with the atmosphere, goals and game,” Sow told NTV Spor.

The 29-year-old striker joined the Yellow Canaries from Lille in 2011 after winning the Ligue 1 title and finishing the season as top scorer with 25 goals.

Sow has a total of 51 goals in 102 appearances for the Istanbul giants and won the league title with Fenerbahçe in 2014.

The experienced striker scored a total of 16 goals and provided eight assists in all competitions this season despite playing much of the season out of position out wide on the wing.

The Fenerbahçe star has a total of 12 goals in 37 international caps for Senegal.
