Turkish club Galatasaray have make a move for West Ham United striker Carlton Cole according to recent reports.

The 27-year old England international has been linked with a number of clubs in recent months with Stoke City leading the charge but did not depart Upton Park prior to the English transfer deadline.

With Turkey's window open until the 5th of September, a move for Cole could still happen and it is believed that Galatasaray have already made an offer to the Hammers, who currently sit fifth on the Championship table thanks to three goals by the man in question.
