Crystal Palace are ready to make their move to sign free agent attacker Hal Robson-Kanu this summer, according to the Mirror.
The 27-year-old was released by Reading after the expiry of his contract but put himself in the shop window like no one else ever has with a series of remarkable displays at Euro 2016.
After coming off the bench to score Wales’ winner in their opening game against Slovakia, Robson-Kanu bagged himself arguably the goal of the tournament in the 3-1 quarter-final victory over Belgium with his stunning solo goal which featured a Cruyff-turn which left three Belgian defenders stranded as he stroked the ball home past Thibaut Courtois.
Primarily a left-winger, who can also operate up front, Alan Pardew is eyeing a move for the Welshman to replace the outbound Yannick Bolasie who is set to join Everton in a deal which could rise to £30m.
Pardew is sacrificing Bolasie in order to generate funds to make a club-record £32m move for Liverpool’s Christian Benteke, who they hope to sign before the end of the summer transfer window.
Robson-Kanu is a hot property in the transfer market right now and has been linked with the likes of Swansea City, Hull City, Watford, Everton, Southampton and Celtic, while there were links with La Liga due Atletico Madrid and Sevilla.
