Crystal Palace’s search for a striker continues and it’s now brought them to Turin with a Serie A forward being eyed.
Roy Hodgson‘s forward line has frequently been linked with a new name joining this January with a lack of goals an issue.
With some targets proving too expensive while others haven’t developed beyond interest.
With yet another name linked, however, it could be assumed eventually Steve Parish and Dougie Freedman will find a move which makes sense.
Here’s the news of the latest striker to be linked with Crystal Palace…
Crystal Palace now want Moise Kean
Palace’s striker hunt has now shifted to a new name in 15-cap Italy international, Moise Kean.
Kean currently plays for Juventus but has struggled this season which has left him and the club looking at their options.
Now Italian journalist Mirko Di Natale has tweeted on the situation. He claims that Kean is wanted by both Fulham and West Ham alongside Crystal Palace.
Juventus are willing to evaluate any offer whether that be a loan, a loan with an option to buy or a straight purchase, which suits Palace as they can try before they buy almost.
This name though is just the latest in a long line this window, and so it’s anyone’s guess as to how far Palace will move with the interest.
Everton only sold Kean back to Juventus for £25m in 2023 and so he’s likely to cost around that fee.
Crystal Palace have countless striker targets
Palace has cast their striker net wide this window with several names being strongly linked with a move.
Borja Mayoral is one linked with the Zinedine Zidane-endorsed Spaniard currently on fire for Getafe rivaling Jude Bellingham for the golden boot. Unsurprisingly though the asking price is fairly steep at £39m.
Eddie Nketiah is probably the number one target whom Palace really wanted this window, although he’s seen as too expensive, Arsenal also won’t sell without a replacement.
Another – albeit less exciting – is Danny Ings who had been linked although given the profile of the other targets, signing Ings wouldn’t go down well.
