Manchester City defender Aymeric Laporte could be offered a transfer option to stay in the Premier League this summer.
The footballer played a key role at the Etihad Stadium in the 2022/23 season as City marched towards a historic treble.
However, a lack of regular game time is starting to frustrate the 29-year-old as he wants to play consistently at club level in order to retain his starting place with Spain at Euro 2024.
Barcelona were rumored to be considering a potential move, but the arrival of Inigo Martinez appears to have ended their interest.
According to reports from the Daily Star, Crystal Palace could now look to make a bold move for the experienced defender, as City are looking for Josko Guardiol.
City will value Laporte at around €25m, but Palace will aim to lower that price, before other Premier League sides enter the fray.
