Crystal Palace appear to be closing in on a deal to sign Juventus and former Manchester United defender, Patrice Evra.
Sport Witness are reporting that Tuttosport state the player’s doubts on the move to the Premier League are slowly easing.
Leaving Italian champions, Juventus for a relegation scrap in the Premier League on paper does not seem like a good career move and Evra was reportedly holding off for other offers to come in.
Evra has been unable to hold down a spot in the Juventus team this season, making just six appearances in the Serie A.
The 35-year-old has impressed during his time in Italy after leaving Manchester United in 2014.
Despite his age, Evra would arrive at Selhurst Park with some pedigree and would be a huge boost for the Premier League strugglers.
Palace are seeking defensive reinforcements as they bid to avoid relegation from the Premier League under Sam Allardyce.
