Saha on Besiktas hit list

Turkish outfit Besiktas are reported to be expressing an interest in Everton striker Louis Saha. Various sources in Turkey and France suggest the Istanbul-based club are prepared to splash out around 2million euros (£1.7m) on the Frenchman. Saha only joined Everton from Manchester United last summer, penning a two-year contract with the Toffees. He once again struggled with injuries last term, a problem which has plagued his career to date, but looked sharp towards the end of the campaign as he enjoyed a prolonged period away from the treatment table. The 30-year-old frontman is still keen to prove himself at Goodison Park and feels he is capable of holding his own in the Premier League. With that in mind, Saha is reluctant to leave Merseyside for at least one more year, unless David Moyes deems him surplus to requirements. "I have not been contacted by any team," he told skysports.com. "I want to repay David Moyes for taking a chance on me. Unless he decides he does not want me, I can't see myself leaving."
