Crystal Palace will need to part with more money if they want to sign Ibrahim Amadou, explain L’Equipe.
The French newspaper say reports from England indicate an offer of €14.5m has been made by Crystal Palace, which L’Equipe point out easily beats the €10m offer already submitted by Bordeaux.
However, Sky Sports on Wednesday spoke of a £16m offer arriving from Crystal Palace for the player, which is obviously quite a bit more.
Still, it’s not quite the €20m which L’Equipe say Lille want for the 24 year old, but it would appear the two clubs are edging closer to a potential transfer.
Roy Hodgson will be looking to add to his Crystal Palace squad this month in order to further strengthen the club’s fight against relegation.
