Crystal Palace striker Christian Benteke attracting interest from Parma and Fiorentina with West Brom boss Sam Allardyce also considering a move for his former player

Christian Benteke is attracting interest from Italian duo Parma and Fiorentina ahead of Monday’s transfer deadline.

The Crystal Palace striker, who is also a target for Club Bruges, is out of contract at Selhurst Park at the end of the campaign, meaning he is now free to agree terms with clubs from abroad for a summer move,

Benteke started Palace’s last game, a 3-2 home defeat by West Ham, and created the opener for Wilfried Zaha but it is thought Palace are willing to discuss a deal for the 30-year-old in this window.
