Report: West Ham agree terms with Yilmaz

West Ham United have reportedly agreed personal terms with Galatasaray striker Burak Yilmaz, who has been linked with the London side.

The Turkish international, who scored 18 goals in 34 appearances for his club last season, is understood to be keen on a move to England, having spent his entire career in his homeland so far.

According to The Metro, Yilmaz has agreed a £6.4m-per-season deal with the Hammers, but the club still needs to finalise a transfer fee with the Turkish champions, as the striker still has four years remaining on his contract.

Yilmaz, who scored in the opening match of the season for Galatasaray, also netted against West Ham manager Slaven Bilic's Besiktas side in the Super Lig last season.
