Birmingham City striker Che Adams has emerged as Crystal Palace’s top summer target, according to a report from The Evening Standard.
The Eagles are understood to be focusing the bulk of their attention towards signing a new forward in the upcoming transfer window, with the 22-year-old their ‘prime’ target.
Adams has been in excellent form for the Blues this season. In the Championship, he has found the back of the net on 22 occasions and has also chipped in with four assists for his teammates.
Birmingham remain keen to keep hold of their prized asset this summer but could struggle to fend off Premier League interest, with The Evening Standard reporting that a fee worth £15 million could be enough to convince them into a sale.
Crystal Palace’s goalscoring woes have been documented throughout the season, and it comes as no surprise to see Roy Hodgson focusing on strengthening his options in the final third.
Michy Batshuayi is expected to return to Chelsea at the end of his loan spell at Selhurst Park this summer, and it seems Adams has been lined up as a top target to replace him.
