Crystal Palace reportedly want Ezri Konsa of Brentford.
It has been reported that Palace sporting director Dougie Freedman watched Konsa in action last week.
The Eagles will reportedly make a move should Championship club Brentford decide to cash in on the 21-year-old defender.
According to The Sun, Brentford value the former Charlton Athletic defender at £15 million.
The British tabloid has also claimed that Arsenal wanted to sign the England Under-21 international defender in the January transfer window, but the Gunners dropped their interest due to his dip in form.
Good signing for Brentford?
Konsa is a very talented and promising young defender who has proved himself in the Championship.
There is always an element risk involved in signing a player from the second tier of English football, and the reported price-tag of £15m does appear a bit too much for the 21-year-old.
However, the youngster is a risk worth taking for Palace, especially as they could sell him for a much higher price in the future.
