Palace have agreed a deal with Swansea which will bring Jordan Ayew to Selhurst Park, if Riedewald can agree to sign for Swansea in the Championship.

The 21-year-old made 15 appearances for Palace in all competitions last season, as he struggled to make an impact in defence or in midfield.

The former Ajax man now needs to decide whether it is worth dropping down to the Championship in order to develop himself further.

Roy Hodgson is on the verge of completing several deals, with Max Meyer and Chiekhou Kouyate both having completed medicals with the club.

We also revealed, exclusively, that Danny Ings is on the verge of a move to the club from Liverpool.
