Crystal Palace are considering making a move for West Ham United forward Michail Antonio in the January transfer window, according to a report on the Football Insider.
The Eagles were interested in bringing the Englishman to Selhurst Park before the season started, but could not manage to convince the Hammers to let him leave.
With his side struggling to find the back of the net with regularity, Roy Hodgson is hoping to bring in some attacking players in January to help his side’s fight for survival.
Palace heavily rely on Wilfried Zaha to provide the goals and Hodgson knows that if his side are to avoid relegation, then they need more players who can score.
Hodgson is understood to be an admirer of Antonio because of his versatility. The forward can operate anywhere along the frontline and has been used in various different positions during his career.
Antonio has only started four league games this season and if Palace can offer him more first-team football, then he could be tempted to leave the Hammers.
