Victor Camarasa could cut his loan nightmare short in January and leave Selhurst Park with just two appearances.
The Spaniard has failed to make an impact with the Eagles, playing just five minutes in the Premier League and a full 90 in Palace's Carabao Cup loss to Colchester United. With this limited amount of playing time, it is difficult to see him wanting to stay for any longer.
Camarasa impressed at Cardiff City last season, but travelled back to his parent club Real Betis in May when the Bluebirds were relegated to the Championship – coming back to the UK in the summer to try to break back into a Premier League side.
