Crystal Palace may have been handed a huge transfer boost of their own thanks to Manchester United’s recent dealings.
The Eagles have already been subjected to a busy summer window, which has seen Michael Olise join Bayern Munich for £50.8million.
While losing one star has come as a slight blow, the window is far from over, in both a positive and negative sense.
It means that Oliver Glasner has the chance to reinforce his squad ranks, with Daichi Kamada and Chadi Riad already added to the team.
However, it also creates the possibility of losing other key players, with a whole host of teams already circling a few prospects.
It’s no secret that Manchester United have shown transfer interest in Crystal Palace star Marc Guehi in the summer window.
However, it appears as though the Red Devils are set to look elsewhere in the centre-back department as a huge boost to Palace.
According to The Athletic, Man United are set to sign Lille centre-back Leny Yoro in a deal worth an initial £52million.
The promising 18-year-old had been previously linked with a switch to Real Madrid, but his move to Old Trafford will now strengthen their defensive ranks.
While Guehi could stay this summer, the overarching priority for Crystal Palace should be offering him an extended stay at the club.
With just two years left on his deal, the value of any potential transfer fee could drift significantly as the contract runs down.
