Crystal Palace step up their interest in Demarai Gray with Jamaica international ready to leave Everton due to lack of regular starts

Crystal Palace are stepping up interest in Everton forward Demarai Gray.

The 27-year-old Jamaica international is ready to leave Goodison Park after growing frustrated with his starting opportunities towards the end of last season. He has a number of clubs who have shown interest with opportunities also opening up in the Saudi Arabia Pro League.

Everton are looking to strengthen in attack yet are willing to let Gray go for the right price. He was signed by Rafa Benitez from Bayer Leverkusen for £1.7million but they need to raise funds as they navigate Financial Fair Play restrictions and are looking for around £12m.
