Crystal Palace are moving in the transfer market already and will make a swoop for West Ham attacker Michail Antonio this window, reports the Guardian.
The versatile player was named West Ham’s player of the season in the 2016-17 season and has been a constant threat in the first team over his three seasons with the club.
West Ham are understood to value the 28-year-old highly, and any transfer would cost Palace dearly as he is contracted with them until 2021.
Antonio hasn’t featured for the Hammers since suffering a hamstring injury which ended his season in the 3-0 victory over Southampton in March. He was visibly upset, leaving the pitch in tears.
West Ham’s main concern at the moment is appointing a successor to David Moyes, so it remains to be seen if they want Antonio in their future plans.
In total, he has 20 goals in 76 appearances in the Premier League, so it is likely they will want to keep him at the London Stadium.
