Turkish outfit Besiktas have been offered West Ham's Andy Carroll on a loan deal, but are said to be waiting on the go-ahead from their manager Senol Gunes before making a move for the striker.
Besiktas have been looking for a replacement for Cenk Tosun, who left for Everton in January, and could facilitate a switch for Carroll if they're willing to look past a fresh injury.
Last week, the Hammers reported that the striker could be out for some time as he's due for ankle surgery, having already played in the pre-season, while Winston Reid is also set for explorative knee surgery.
