Crystal Palace have reportedly joined the race for Real Betis midfielder Victor Camarasa.
That’s according to Spanish outlet Marca, cited by Sports Witness, who suggest that the Eagles have joined the likes of West Ham, Tottenham and Burnley in the race to sign the former Cardiff City man.
The report goes onto add that Palace officials have been in Spain since Wednesday and are looking to reach an agreement for the player’s services.
Camarasa has a release clause set at €25 million in his current contract with the La Liga side, so it appears as if Palace are unwilling to trigger that clause.
The 25-year-old excelled for the Bluebirds last season on a season-long loan but couldn’t do enough to keep Neil Warnock’s side in the Premier League.
Roy Hodgson has been relatively quiet during the current window, with Jordan Ayew the only permanent arrival at Selhurst Park.
And with the Eagles still yet to spend a large proportion of the £50 million fee they received for Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Hodgson looks to be keen on bringing the creative midfielder to London in the coming days.
