# Palace linked with move for Liverpool striker

Crystal Palace are one of three Premier League clubs interested in signing Liverpool striker Jerome Sinclair, according to a report by Darren Witcoop of [The Mirror](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/liverpool-starlet-jerome-sinclair-transfer-7770957).

The 19-year-old was at West Brom as a youngster but made the switch to Anfield when he was 14. He actually became Liverpool’s youngest ever player, at 16 years and 6 days old, when he came on as a substitute against West Brom in a League Cup tie but his time with the Merseyside club is coming to an end.

Watford seem to be close to agreeing a deal to sign the young striker in the summer when his contract at Anfield expires but nothing has yet been formally agreed, so there is a chance that Palace could sneak in and take him.

Liverpool will need to be compensated if Jerome does sign with another club but as he has only featured in a handful of games for the Reds, the fee is not expected to be a large one.
