Ghana international winger Christian Atsu has been linked with a move to Turkish Super Lig giants Galatasaray, according to reports from the United Kingdom.

Officials from Galatasaray are in London to hold negotiations with Chelsea to purchase the winger who turns 24 on Sunday.

Chelsea technical head Michael Emenalo recalled the former FC Porto star from his loan spell at Bournemouth last week to put several clubs on the alert.

And, now Galatasaray have taken the early initiative to land the 2015 AFCON Golden Shoe Award winner who missed out on the CAF Team of the Year.

Atsu has been training along his Ghana national team-mate Baba Rahman at the Chelsea and will continue the exercise under Dutch gaffer Guus Hiddink until he is either loaned out or put on permanent sale.
