Crystal Palace are hopeful of concluding a deal worth up to £30million for Liverpool defender Mamadou Sakho but face competition from Leicester City as well as West Brom.
The Selhurst Park club had a £24m offer rejected earlier in the window but are trying to secure the 27-year-old France international, who wants a return to London.
Leicester asked about Sakho on Monday after being rebuffed in a £23m bid for West Brom defender Jonny Evans.
West Brom also want Sakho as a replacement for Evans as they anticipate Manchester City will make an improved offer.
