Crystal Palace are set to do battle with Premier League rivals Bournemouth to sign QPR midfielder Ryan Manning, according to the Mirror.
Manning has broken into the first-team at QPR this season under boss Ian Holloway and has already impressed many.
The 20-year-old left-winger was reportedly set to be released at the end of the season until Holloway put his faith in him, and it paid off.
The report says that both Palace and the Cherries have made enquiries about the availability of the Irishman. Manning was given a new two-year contract this season, so that could see his price driven up.
Rangers signed Manning from Irish side Galway United in January 2015. Since then, Manning has made 16 appearances for Rangers, scoring once for the West London side.
Crystal Palace currently sit 16th in the Premier League, seven points clear of the relegation zone. Palace would secure their safety with victory over Manchester City next Saturday.
