​West Ham have reportedly accepted a €5m bid from Galatasaray for midfielder Sofiane Feghouli - however a signing on fee owed by the Hammers is understood to be holding up the deal.





The 27-year-old has spent only one season with West Ham after joining the club on a free transfer from Valencia last summer, however when Feghouli joined the Hammers he was set-up with a three-year signing on fee worth €4.5m which is now holding up proceedings.

West Ham have already handed over €1.5m of it to Feghouli, and Turkish outlet Hurriyet, via ​football.london, is reporting that although a €5m bid has been accepted and that Galatasaray are close to agreeing personal terms with the midfielder, the remaining €2.5m is still being argued over between the two clubs.





Galatasaray are refusing the Hammers proposal of the Turkish club paying the remaining signing on fee as they are willing to pay a transfer fee for the 27-year-old.

We shift Feghouli on for a pathetic fee, only to see the majority of that money spent on making him actually leave. So West Ham. — Samuel Thorne (@SamuelJThorne) July 7, 2017

The player himself is also expressing his desire for West Ham to pay him off, but so far the club is refusing to do so.





With both clubs at loggerheads over a signing on fee which West Ham rightfully owe Feghouli, the deal could be delayed until the Hammers find a way of solving the issue.

However, the Turkish outlet report that if Galatasaray can sort out the problem then Feghouli will make the move this summer - ending the 27-year-old's stint in England before it really ever got going.
