Palace do not want to splash cash on Barca’s Munir

Crystal Palace are not willing to meet Barcelona’s €20 million asking price for young forward Munir, according to Marca, as cited on Sport Witness.

Two La Liga clubs, Alaves and Deportivo La Coruna, are interested in signing the Spaniard, as well as Sampdoria and Crystal Palace but it has been reported that none of these clubs want to pay the asking fee.

Sampdoria and Palace do have the funds to pay the €20 million unlike the La Liga clubs, whether they are willing to pay up is another question.

With reports suggesting Sampdoria’s Dennis Praet is close leaving the Italian side, they may want to sign Munir as his replacement.

Munir has already had a successful career at the age of just 22. Winning La Liga, Spanish Cups and a Champions League as well as other various honours.

The Spaniard has come through the ranks at Barcelona, performing at every level for the Catalans. He spent last season on loan at Valencia, making 39 appearances, scoring eight and assisting three times.
