# Liverpool officials to fly to Turkey for Vida talks

Liverpool are expected to send officials to Istanbul to discuss a move for Everton and West Ham target Domagoj Vida.

According to Turkish newspaper [M](https://www.milliyet.com.tr/vida-da-gevseme-yok--besiktas-west-ham-2710435-skorerhaber/)[illiyet](https://www.milliyet.com.tr/vida-da-gevseme-yok--besiktas-west-ham-2710435-skorerhaber/), the Reds are looking to step up their interest in the player.

Vida, who impressed in Russia at the World Cup this summer, has attracted interest from Everton, Liverpool and most recently West Ham.

Besiktas are hoping to sell the defender for big money with interest mounting in his services after his performances at the World Cup.

Vida was a key figure in the Croatian side that reached the final of the competition, playing alongside Liverpool’s Dejan Lovren.

Liverpool have already [reportedly failed with two bids](https://readliverpoolfc.com/2018/07/17/liverpool-make-improved-offer-for-vida/) for the player, with the latest believed to be in the region of £20 million.

West Ham are also believed to have [had a bid rejected](https://readliverpoolfc.com/2018/07/21/west-ham-have-offer-rejected-for-liverpool-target-vida/) for the player.

The Turkish side are hoping to receive closer to £30 million for the defender this summer.
