Apparently us, Bournemouth and Newcastle are in. Bournemouth offered 17 million pounds.

Seems difficult for me to believe they'll sell cause last years Lyon was saying "not even for 40 million". But lately he has lost his place as a starter and maybe they have some financial trouble. Still scored 3 goals and provided 4 assists this season.

They brought in Karl Toko Ekambi from Villarreal pretty cheaply (old Palace wanted striker who didn't come in the end, went to Villarreal and played well there).

If Bertrand Traore really is available for 15-20 million, he would totally be worth it. Still young, similar to Townsend as a left footed right winger, but taller, also able to play as center forward. Was raised by Chelsea (something in Batshuayi's style), but he exploded as a footballer on loan at Ajax. Then went to Lyon and he has played really well in France.
