Trabzonspor president, Ertugrul Dogan has confirmed the club is still in talks to sign Southampton striker Paul Onuachu.
Onuachu spent last season on loan at the Turkish Premier League club.
The Nigeria international scored 17 goals across all competitions for the Black Sea Storm.
Trabzonspor have expressed interest in signing the lanky striker on a permanent transfer but have been unable to match Southampton’s valuation.
Dogan is however upbeat they will get the deal done before the end of the transfer window.
“Onuachu is also our coach’s first request. We are talking to him. He is also telling his club. We made a serious offer,” Doğan told Turkish website NTV Spor.
“We made an offer with 6 million euros and bonuses. His club’s demand of 15 million euros continues.
“The transfer period is ending. I think it will result positively with a loan or purchase like the last time. Our talks are ongoing.”
