Everton are willing to loan Kenny out after limited first-team chances this season, and could be set to buy another right-back to take his place in the squad.

Palace, meanwhile, may be in need of a new first-choice right-back if star defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka leaves the club this summer – following his exceptional season for the club in the Premier League.

Kenny is a product of the Everton youth academy and has made 40 first-team appearances for the club, including 31 in the Premier League in the last four campaigns for the Toffees.
