According to The Express, Crystal Palace could face competition from Rangers and Burnley in the race to sign Sheffield United’s John Lundstram.

The 27-year-old’s contract at Bramall Lane expires in June, and The Express claim he’s turned down several offers to stay.

As a result, the Eagles, the Gers and the Clarets are all circling around the Blades maestro.

Lundstram enjoyed a great campaign in the Premier League last season with five goals and three assists, as Chris Wilder’s men comfortably stayed up.

However, this season has been a disaster for the Blades. They are rooted to the bottom of the Premier League, with just four wins from 28 games.

Lundstram also hasn’t been at his best, recording just two assists and no goals in 23 appearances.

However, the Sheffield United No.7 has proven himself to be a competent performer across his 57 appearances in the Premier League.

His form last season saw him become a Fantasy Football hero, with players of the game calling him ‘Lord Lundstram’ – it then caught on.

The Liverpool-born midfielder revealed that his teammates then started calling him ‘Lord’ around the training ground, as he told the Premier League’s official website.

Despite his woes this season, there’s no denying Lundstram would be a great signing for Rangers, Palace or Burnley – especially for free.
