This is not the first time Crystal Palace have been credited with an interest in the West Ham United winger.

Crystal Palace fans are reacting reports linking the West Ham United winger, Michail Antonio, with a move to Selhurst Park.

According to the Daily Mirror, Palace are ‘plotting a move’ for Antonio, whom they failed to sign a year ago.

But the newspaper claims ‘there is now a feeling’ that the Eagles can convince West Ham to sell.

West Ham recently strengthened their attacking options through the signings of Pablo Fornals and Sebastien Haller, whose arrivals, it is suggested, could see Antonio’s opportunities limited this coming campaign.

And Crystal Palace’s need for the 29-year-old could increase if Wilfried Zaha is sold, amid reports of interest from Arsenal and Everton, among others.

But what do those of an Eagles persuasion make of the prospect of Antonio arriving?

This is what they’re saying on Twitter…

The Daily Telegraph reported this time last year that Crystal Palace were weighing up a £15 million offer for Antonio.

But how much the Eagles would be willing to pay now, not to mention how much West Ham would be willing to accept, remains to be seen.

The former non-league player still has two years left on what is, according to the Guardian, a £70,000-a-week contract at the London Stadium.

Should West Ham let Antonio leave for Crystal Palace?
