Arsenal face Everton competition for Besiktas midfielder Oguzhan Ozyakup

Arsenal face competition from Everton for Besiktas midfielder Oguzhan Ozyakup.

The Turkey international is a former Gunners academy prospect and is being linked to a return with Arsenal in January.

Fotospor says Everton are readying a £13million offer for the 25-year-old as they look for January reinforcements following their poor start to the season.

That is said to be higher than Arsenal would be willing to go.

Ozyakup came through the Arsenal academy, making two League Cup appearances before he returned to his homeland and the Gunners have been linked with a January bid for their former player.
