Crystal Palace and Everton are monitoring AZ Alkmaar midfielder Markus Henriksen ahead of a possible summer transfer.
The Norwegian international is also a target for Serie A giants AC Milan and Napoli, as per Il Sussi Diario.
The 23-year-old will enter the final year of his contract in the summer and AZ could consider cashing in, rather than keep him for a year before losing him for free.
Henriksen is a very attack-minded player with an eye for goal. He’s scored 17 goals in 33 appearances for the Dutch side this season and he’s also been credited with seven assists.
Everton and Palace have been scouting him in recent weeks, as have AC Milan and Napoli so if Alan Pardew wants to bring him to Selhurst Park, he will have a battle on his hands to do so.
Palace have struggled for goals this season, so adding a midfielder with such an impressive goal-scoring record to the squad would be a major boost for Pardew.
