Crystal Palace and Fulham will reportedly have to pay an eight-figure fee if they hope to sign Victor Moses.

Victor Moses of Chelsea looks on during the UEFA Europa League Group L match between Chelsea and Vidi FC at Stamford Bridge on October 4, 2018 in London, United Kingdom.

According to a report from The Sun on Sunday (09/12; page 57), Crystal Palace have been joined by Fulham in the race to sign Victor Moses, but either side will have to pay £12 million if they want a January deal for the Chelsea winger.

The 27-year-old was a regular fixture in the Blues side under Antonio Conte as he found himself proving to be a key part of the team at wing-back.

However, under Maurizio Sarri, his game-time has decreased dramatically, and he has only managed to make two substitute appearances in the Premier League for the Stamford Bridge outfit this term.

The Sun on Sunday (09/12; page 57) reports that Chelsea are ready to let the Nigeria international go, and Palace and the Cottagers are both monitoring the situation with next month’s window looming.

The report adds that Chelsea will want £12 million for Moses before they sanction a sale, and the interested sides are not being put off by his price-tag as they weigh up a potential move.

Palace could certainly do with adding their former academy starlet to the ranks at Selhurst Park as they desperately search for more goals in their side. Meanwhile, Fulham boast plenty of attacking quality, but are struggling enormously at the back, so perhaps Moses’ versatility is appealing to Claudio Ranieri.
