The striker, who was linked with a move to Palace over the summer, could yet be on his way to Selhurst Park, with the player’s agent Sandor Varga claiming that Roy Hodgson is a big fan of the player.

Speaking to Match Premiere via Championat,  Varga said:

I talked with Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson about Chalov. He really likes the player. I don’t want to exclude the possibility that Crystal Palace will make another move for him next summer.

The Eagles striking woes have been very prominent this season, with Christian Benteke continuing to misfire.

Jordan Ayew has been grabbing some goals for the Eagles, but the striker can’t get them all for Palace.

The goals continue to come from the midfield, and the Eagles could do with reinforcements up front.

Therefore, a move for Chalov could be the answer.

matchday.
