Crystal Palace closing in on £26m Spanish international as replacement for Eberechi Eze after his £68m Arsenal move

Crystal Palace are pushing to finalise the £26m signing of Yeremy Pino from Villareal as their replacement for Eberechi Eze.

The Spain international is being convinced of a move to London while Palace will offer further bonus payments.

Meanwhile the Eagles have made an approach for Manchester City defender Manuel Akanji too.

City are thought to want in the region of £15m for the Swiss defender, who is seemingly no longer in manager Pep Guardiola's plans and has not featured in either of their opening Premier League fixtures.
