According to The Daily Mail, Crystal Palace are interested in signing Ademola Lookman from Premier League rivals Everton in the summer transfer window.

It has been reported that Southampton and RB Leipzig are also interested in the 21-year-old winger.

The report has claimed that the England Under-21 international is evaluating his next move, and that Everton want as much as £20 million as transfer fees for the youngster.

Lookman has been on the books of Everton since January 2017 when he joined from Charlton Athletic for a transfer fee reported by BBC Sport to be worth £11 million.

Moving to Crystal Palace

Palace already have two very good wingers in Andros Townsend and Wilfried Zaha, and it is going to be hard for Lookman to establish himself in the Eagles’ first team straightaway.

However, Lookman is not going to get much playing time at Everton, and his progress and development at the Toffees is going to be slow.

A move to Palace and learning from the likes of Townsend and Zaha will not be a bad idea for the 21-year-old.
