Crystal Palace have been handed a boost in their bid to add to their attacking options this month ahead of the 11 pm deadline.
Roy Hodgson is being backed ahead of his final few months at the helm of Crystal Palace. Daniel Munoz and Adam Wharton are both already through the door – Wharton should be announced imminently.
On top of those who have already arrived, there is a good chance Palace aren’t finished yet with a couple of loan moves potentially on the cards.
Sales could also be moving today, but here’s the latest regarding incoming at Selhurst Park.
Maxwel Cornet wants move, Palace can give him it
As deadline day gets underway, Palace have recieved a massive boost with one target seemingly keen on making a move away from his current club after initial reports of Palace interest last night.
Ed Aarons has claimed that Palace are keen on Maxwel Cornet, and in turn as talks continue with West Ham, the Ivory Coast international is keen on making a move.
The versatile winger/forward/wing-back has struggled for game time this season at the London Stadium with just two Premier League appearances – in which he has scored once.
The winger earns £65k-a-week and it’s likely West Ham would require that Palace pay him his full wage if he is to arrive on a six month loan.
Cornet could be a top addition for Roy Hodgson
Cornet is a player with X-Factor, as Owen Hargreaves lauded he is “a fabulous goalscorer” which is exactly what Palace need right now.
During the 2021-22 season for Burnley he managed to grab nine goals in 26 games which is an incredible tally in a side who eventual went down.
With Cornet, Palace could have reinforced several positions although he probably warrants a place in the starting line-up.
The 27-year-old has a point to prove after David Moyes has failed to utilise him and so we’d love him to prove that point at Selhurst Park.
