Crystal Palace transfer target Jean Michael Seri is closing in on a move to Turkish giants Galatasaray on loan this summer.

According to Sky Sports journalist Kaveh Solhekol, Galatasaray and Fulham are close to agreeing a deal for the midfielder.

He claims that Galatasaray are set to sign him on an initial loan, with an option to sign him permanently at the end of the season.

The 27-year-old joined Fulham from Ligue 1 side OCG Nice last summer, but failed to impress in the Premier League as the London-based side were relegated back to the Championship. Seri played 30 league games for Fulham, scoring just one goal from midfield.

Palace have been touted with interest in the midfielder, with reports earlier this summer claiming that Roy Hodgson was lining up a loan swoop for Seri. 

Do Palace need a new holding midfielder?
