# Club confirms Villa target is under bid

Turkish side Kayseri Erciyesspor have confirmed that they have received two offers from abroad for their star striker Oğulcan Çağlayan, a player Villa have been linked with this summer – according to Turkish outlet [AMK](https://amkspor.sozcu.com.tr/2015/07/04/ogulcan-caglayana-devler-talip-427861/).

The 19 year old striker joined Erciyesspor in February for a low fee but it is now understood that his club will want to cash in on the player after the youngster showed real quality in the Turkish Super Lig, scoring 6 and assisting 2 during his season at the club.

With Erciyesspor also being relegated from the Turkish Super Lig it is also thought that Çağlayan will push for a move, with another 2 bids from Turkish based sides, also confirmed by the club.

Çağlayan has been capped at u16s – u19s for Turkey and is highly rated, scoring 9 in 10 for the u16s.

It is understood the Striker will be available for around £2m.
