reported that Elmas has become a hot spot in the transfer market this summer. In addition to Naples, who is considering returning to the old player and Turin, which needs to strengthen the front midfielder, West Ham United is also interested in Elmas and has made important inquiries. If a suitable offer is received, Leipzig will let Elmas leave the team recently.

West Ham United ranked Elmas as the first choice target for signings. Previously, Elmas had rejected Besiktas's 5 million euro annual salary invitation. He only wanted to return to Serie A or play for Premier League teams. Hermas' existing contract with Leipzig will expire in June 2028.
