Palace in advanced discussions to sign striker
James Ward-Prowse seals loan move to Burnley
Wolves are braced for a bid totalling £50m for Jørgen Strand Larsen from Crystal Palace. The Norway striker is expected to exit in this window, and Palace are in advanced discussions to sign him.
The agent Jorge Mendes is leading negotiations on behalf of Wolves, with an initial £45m, plus £5m in add-ons, mooted. It remains to be seen whether rivals would move to match or exceed that offer; Leeds are viewed as the most serious competition but Palace are in pole position.
Leeds had a bid of about £40m rejected for the 25-year-old this month, and Nottingham Forest, also hunting an experienced striker, have also been monitoring him.
