West Ham are set to be given the opportunity to sign former Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure.
Toure is angling to complete a Premier League return after being released from Olympiakos.
According to a Daily Mail report, his agent Dimitry Seluk is sounding out both Palace and West Ham, with Toure seeking a return to London specifically.
Toure joined his former side Olympiakos over the summer following his departure from Manchester City and was released after just five games in what was a surprise exit.
The Ivorian has long been linked with a move to West Ham and rumours are likely to intensify given that Manuel Pellegrini is in charge of the Hammers.
Toure is a player that Pellegrini will know well from his time at Manchester City, with the Chilean arguably bringing the best out of the midfielder during his time at the club.
With Palace languishing near the bottom of the table, it remains to be seen if Toure is the sort of player they’ll be searching for in January.
