Villarreal forward Ikechukwu Uche is one of the objectives of Besiktas to strengthen the attack next season informs Fanatik.

Daniel Amokachi, Super Eagles Assistant Coach, had proposed Sone Aluko to the Besiktas hierarchy . But Aluko preferred to remain in the United Kingdom, and completed his move to Hull City on Wednesday.

The new name being bandied about to replace Aluko is the in-form Super Eagles forward Ikechukwu Uche. This is Daniel Amokachi's last trump-card to the Besiktas chiefs.

Technical Director of Besiktas, Samet Ayababa has reportedly met with Ikechukwu Uche's agent to negotiate a transfer, and deal is in the offing if the Turkish side can meet the player's valuation of  €3.5 million.

Kalu Uche, the elder brother of Ikechukwu, signed a three - year contract with KasımpaÃ…Ÿa last week.
