Apologies if already posted but I couldn't find anything on the latest page.
A typically comprehensive report from The Sun so probably bollocks.

We've been rumoured to be after him for months:

He has had a good olympics though.

Quotes here published today:

"And eyes have been cast in Kouyate’s direction, according to his representative Tedik Bekir.

"I have received many phone calls since the Olympics. Almost all from the Premier League, but also from Russian and Turkish teams", said Bekir.

"For now, nothing is really concrete. But that could change later on in the transfer window."
 
Presumably Vincent Kompany will know something about him, being a player at a Belgian club. As he is still only 22yo and reportedly wants to learn his trade in Brussels, maybe we could sign him and loan him back to Anderlecht for the season, especially as he will be presumably away at the ACN for six weeks early next year. Could be a long term replacement for Kolo Toure.
