Glasner really wants him: Crystal Palace working to sign “incredible” star

“Jobe Bellingham is wanted by Crystal Palace, as I’ve previously reported, and he remains one of the names on their list, alongside Antonio Nusa, as they look to replace Michael Olise, who will join Bayern Munich this week.

“Bellingham is also wanted by Brentford and other English clubs, but I would keep an eye on Palace because they are pushing. Their manager Oliver Glasner wants Bellingham, and so now it depends on the player, because if he gives the green light they are prepared to go strong on this one.

“As soon as Bellingham decides, together with his family, Palace are prepared to attack the situation. Contacts have been taking place already, and he’s absolutely one of their dream targets, so keep an eye on this one.”

Palace are looking to capitalise on their promising end to last season as the Eagles finished 10th in the Premier League under Glasner, who took over from Roy Hodgson at the start of the year.

Bellingham, who still has four years left on his current deal with Sunderland, is eyed by the London club as the next big star and could fit in well with Glasner’s attacking style of play.

As Olise replacement

Crystal Palace could be looking to sign Club Brugge attacker Antonio Nusa as a replacement for Michael Olise, journalist Dean Jones has suggested to GIVEMESPORT.

The Eagles are in the market for a wide forward following Olise’s exit to Bayern and could turn to the 19-year-old Norway international.

Nusa was close to a Premier League move in January before he failed his medical with Brentford and returned to Belgium to see out the season.

According to Jones, both Brentford and Tottenham are unlikely to reignite their interest in Nusa, whose signing could ‘work stylistically’ for Palace.
