Gokhan Tore

West Ham United have completed the signing of Besiktas’ Turkish international winger Gokhan Tore.

Turkish-Football sources can reveal that the 24-year-old will join the Hammers on a three year deal which includes the option to sign. Tore has been a long standing target of West Ham boss Slaven Bilic and the London based club already had one bid for him rejected last month according to SkySports.

Tore established himself as one of the most highly sought after players in the Turkish Super League under the stewardship of Slaven Bilic who coached Besiktas for two seasons before taking over at West Ham last summer

The 24-year-old does have Premier League experience having risen through the ranks at Chelsea before his move to HSV and then Rubin Kazan before joining Besiktas.

Tore provided nine assists and scored six goals in 35 appearances for Besiktas in all competitions last season.
