Palace keen on Sasa Kalajdzic

Admira Wacker striker Sasa Kalajdzic has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for Crystal Palace. 

According to claims from The Daily Mail, the Eagles have identified the Austrian attacker as a possible signing this summer as they look to add more firepower to their ranks. 

Michy Batshuayi and Jordan Ayew are only on loan at Selhurst Park, and with Christian Benteke having little over a year remaining on his contract at the club, other options appear to be under consideration.

Kalajdzic has been performing well in the Austrian Bundesliga and has found the back of the net on five occasions in his last five outings. 

The 21-year-old has earned plaudits for his performances in his homeland throughout the season, and a summer tug of war over his signature looks set to ensue. 

The Daily Mail reports that Red Bull Salzburg, Espanyol, Genk and Nice are all in the hunt to land Kalajdzic. 

Meanwhile, in England, Palace are not the only club in the race to recruit the Austria Under-21 international. Rivals Brighton and Hove Albion are reportedly keen, while promotion hopefuls Leeds United are noted as potential suitors.
