Crystal Palace eyeing Villarreal star as replacement for Arsenal-bound Eze | OneFootball

A member of the attacking ranks at La Liga outfit Villarreal has made his way onto the radar of the board at Premier League side Crystal Palace.

That’s according to market insider Fabrizio Romano, who points towards Yeremy Pino as the player in question.

Crystal Palace all of a sudden find themselves on the hunt for reinforcements in the final third with a view to the season ahead.

This comes a star member of the Eagles’ frontline, in Eberechi Eze, agreed on the terms of a move to London rivals Arsenal.

As much is set to leave something of a gaping hole in Oliver Glasner’s XI, with Eze having long stood as one of Palace’s standout performers.

And as alluded to above, in efforts to replace the Englishman, those in a position of power at Selhurst Park have shifted their focus towards La Liga.

As per a report from journalist Fabrizio Romano:

‘Crystal Palace add Yeremy Pino to their list of targets as one of the options with Eze going to Arsenal. Not an easy deal with Villarreal but Palace ask for conditions in last 24h.’
