Haber Sarikirmizi journalist Ali Naci Küçük believes Yilmaz is holding out for a big-money offer from the likes of Tottenham or Liverpool.
He claims the Galatasaray boss told Yilmaz “play for one more year here, show yourself better in the Champions League and go to higher level teams. Instead of going to West Ham, go to Tottenham or go to Liverpool”.
Yilmaz netted 14 goals and six assists in 48 games last season, and reports suggest offers around £35m could be enough to seal a deal.
According to Turkish outlet Fotospor, Villa aren’t willing to overpay. Their initial bid of £17m was rejected, and while they are said to have raised their offer several times, it was only by one or two million.
Although predominantly playing on the left flank, Yilmaz has been used across all of the front three during his appearances for Galatasaray and the Turkish national team – where he has made 28 caps.
