Henry Onyekuru could be set to remain in Turkey beyond the terms of his current loan with Galatasaray if reports in that country are correct.

According to Turkish outlet Aksam, Everton are considering "offering" the young Nigerian striker to Besiktas to offset the remaining €5m of what they owe the Black Eagles for Cenk Tosun.

Onyekuru was initially signed by the Toffees for €8m from Eupen of the Belgian league and has been farmed out on two loan spells at Anderlecht and Galatasaray while he becomes eligible for a work permit to play in the Premier League.

He has 15 goals in 40 games in all competitions this season and has been linked with a number of clubs across Europe in recent weeks, including Bayern Munich, Valencia, Sevilla and Monaco.
