West Ham United have reportedly decided to complete the signing of Osmanlispor midfielder Badou N'Diaye.
While the Hammers have extended the contracts of a number of their first-team squad, Pablo Zabaleta remains their sole signing ahead of the new campaign, but it appears that they are close to securing their second acquisition ahead of next season.
According to The Mirror, the Hammers are preparing to back up their long-standing interest in N'Diaye by sealing an £8.5m transfer.
N'Diaye's Turkish club could only finish in 13th position in the top flight, but he contributed six goals and two assists in 26 appearances.
The 26-year-old also made eight starts as Osmanlispor topped a Europa League group featuring Villarreal before losing to Olympiacos in the second round.
