West Brom likely to demand £15m for Palace target Livermore

West Brom midfielder Jake Livermore is expected to cost Crystal Palace in excess of £15 million this summer.

According to recent reports, the England international has emerged as a top target for Roy Hodgson as he looks to add new faces to his midfield options ahead of next season.

Livermore endured a difficult season with West Brom as they were consigned to relegation. However, a Premier League stay could yet be on the cards, with Palace circling for his signature.

Initially, it was believed that the Eagles were to make a move worth around £10m for Livermore. However, no bid has been lodged yet, according to the Birmingham Mail, as West Brom hold out for a sum of £15m for their midfielder.

Livermore is likely to depart the Hawthorns this summer as he harbours ambitions of playing regular Premier League football.

Palace are facing the prospect of losing Ruben Loftus-Cheek following his loan spell from Chelsea last season, whilst a decision from Yohan Cabaye has not yet been made over his future in South London.

This has prompted Hodgson to actively seek midfield signings, it seems, with Livermore touted as a top target for the Eagles this summer.
