It has been reported  in the Daily Mail that Crystal Palace are looking to offload striker Christian Benteke this summer.

The £27 million man has had a severely underwhelming season, scoring just two goals in 27 appearances.

Palace boss Roy Hodgson seems to have lost patience with the Belgian international after dropping him to the bench and playing two wingers upfront.

The combination of Townsend and Zaha worked wonders against rivals Brighton, helping them score three goals and take all three points.

When asked about Benteke after the game, Hodgson said:

That’s the best we’ve played going forward for a long time. Why would I say we missed Benteke and his presence? The two players up front caused the Bournemouth defence all sorts of problems.

The Eagles are unlikely to recoup all of the £27million they spent on the former Liverpool man, but they should receive a healthy transfer fee were he to leave.
