Barcelona forward Paco Alcacer wants to leave the Spanish giants in search of more first team action, which has alerted Premier League side Crystal Palace who are interested in signing him in January to solve their goalscoring problems, talkSPORT have reported.
The striker joined the Catalan club last summer for £26m but has failed to live up to his price by only scoring six times in the La Liga last season and could be available for a bargain fee.
The 24-year-old has become increasingly frustrated with being a substitute and wants to be a starting striker. He reportedly doesn’t mind leaving the Nou Camp in January to ensure this.
Palace are one of a number of clubs who have been alerted to the possibility of signing Alcacer, with fellow Premier League club Southampton also interested.
The Eagles are claimed to have been interested in signing the ex-Valencia striker in the summer but are now plotting a January move for the forward, with the player eager to secure a move away from the La Liga leaders.
Palace have found it difficult to find the back of the net and things will only get worse now Christian Benteke is injured.
