Crystal Palace have reportedly enquired over the left-back, who is said to be interesting Derby County and a string of other Championship clubs.
The Daily Mirror reports that Derby County are the latest Championship club to be credited with an interest in Amari’i Bell, although Crystal Palace appear to be leading the race for the Fleetwood Town left-back.
Earlier on Friday, the Daily Star reported that Bell was interesting Aston Villa, Norwich City and Brighton & Hove Albion, and the trio are seemingly not alone.
The former Birmingham City man has impressed for League One Fleetwood this season, but could be on the move this month with only 18 months remaining on his contract.

Born in Burton-on-Trent, Bell is likely fancy a return to his native Midlands, which would leave Derby and Villa in the driving seat.
However, the 22-year-old will surely find the prospect of Premier League football with Palace difficult to ignore.
With Marcus Olsson, Max Lowe and Craig Forsyth on the books, Derby are blessed with numbers in Bell’s position, while Palace, like Villa, are believed to be keen on strengthening their left-hand side this month.

Sam Allardyce’s men have been linked with moves for Ben Davies and Patrick van Aanholt this week, despite landing Jeffrey Schlupp for £12 million.
Would Bell be a good addition for Crystal Palace/Derby County?
