Palace have reportedly made an offer to land Everton striker Tosun.
Crystal Palace have reportedly made an offer to sign Everton striker Cenk Tosun with a week left to go in the January transfer window – and the majority of Palace fans are keen to get him in.
Turkish outlet Hurriyet claim Palace have tabled a bid to land the Turkey international, and it appears the 27-year-old is keen to leave Everton in search of regular first-team football.
Palace are in desperate need of a new striker, with Christian Benteke and Connor Wickham hardly proving a consistent and reliable source of goals. Alexander Sorloth has joined Gent on loan, while Wilfried Zaha has even been tried up front.
Tosun has only scored two goals in 16 Premier League appearances this season, though 10 of those appearances have come from the substitutes’ bench. Dom Calvert-Lewin and Richarlison are preferred.
The powerful striker joined Everton for £27million (Telegraph) in January 2018 under Sam Allardyce, but has only managed seven goals in Everton colours. It has cost the Toffees £3.9million every goal.
Crystal Palace fans reacted to the news that their club could be about to sign Everton’s Tosun, after coming close to land the Turkish ace in the summer of 2017. Many are just glad a striker could be about to join.
