Crystal Palace have recently been linked with a move for talented Argentine starlet Matias Soule, but have now been advised he’s not available at least until June.

Matias Soule has been linked with a move to Crystal Palace in recent weeks however it appears that the Premier League side will have to wait until June if they want to sign him.

Palace are in desperate need of some reinforcements across the pitch as they slowly sink down the league table toward those dreaded relegation spots under Roy Hodgson‘s tutelage.

Midfield reinforcements will be the most important however adding a player who has been likened to Angel Di Maria can never be rejected.

However, if the Selhurst Park side are to sign the electric and technically talented ace, they’ll have to wait a little beyond January.

Matias Soule not available in January

Soule has been linked as being a potential option for Palace as early as January but now it has been shut down by Juventus director Giovanni Manna.

Fabrizio Romano reported his comments on Soule’s future in which he confirmed that the 20-year-old will be unavailable until June at least.

He said: “Soulé will stay at Frosinone on loan until June”.

This would see the talented youngster remain on his loan at the Serie A side until it ends before we assume other options would be considered in June.

Where does Matias Soule fit in at Crystal Palace?

The bad part of interest in Soule is that his preferred position happens to be the right-wing, where Michael Olise is currently starring.

This could suggest that Soule is seen as a long-term replacement for Olise given the substantial interest Palace will be expecting to receive.

Soule has caught fire this season in Serie A for Frosinone, scoring six goals and assisting one in just 13 appearances which is an impressive return.

He is highly rated and would be a coup for Palace, the type of signing the likes of Brighton would do much to the rest of the league’s envy.

So it is a deal we would love to see come off in the summer, as he continues to impress this season.
