Dendoncker agent negotiating with Crystal Palace as deadline approaches

The agent of Leander Dendoncker is said to be in negotiations with Crystal Palace, as the parties try to secure a move for the midfielder ahead of Thursday’s transfer deadline.

Sport Witness report that the 23-year-old’s representative is meeting with Palace officials to try and finalise a switch that would see his client move from Anderlecht.

Joining the Brussels-outfit as a youth, Dendoncker has played his entire senior career in the Belgian capital.

A mammoth 101 appearances in the last two years was enough to convince Belgian manager Roberto Martinez that the Passendale-native belonged in his final 23-man squad for the World Cup.

Making an appearance in Belgium’s final group game against England, the defensive midfielder gave a strong enough account of himself to draw interest from numerous Premier League clubs.

Sport Witness report interest in Dendoncker from Wolves in addition to Palace, indicating the Eagles could face competition in their pursuit of the versatile international.
