I have a feeling this one has legs. We had scouted and were keen on Dembele when he was at Fulham and then Celtic and we have previous for signing players we were tracking in previous years. Plus, it seems we may be using the finances from Wilf's wages partially to pay him. And finally signing a player like him o a free seems like appealing business. It's been reported by the BBC via Football Insider so has some legitimacy to it:

Personally I'd rather keep Wilf for another year even if it costs £200,000 a week in wages.

3 goals in 27 appearances this season in a lesser league than the Prem. Just saying.
Palace since 19 August 1972. Palace 1 (Tony Taylor) Liverpool 1 (Emlyn Hughes) |

I thought his transfer to France was just a stepping stone for him on this path. The assumption would therefore be that he is still a top player however I am unaware of any evidence to back this asides from previous form/commentary. For balance, I'm equally unaware of any evidence to say he's dropped off massively barring the stat you've provided YT... though that could be indicative.
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

For sure Palace are looking for a dynamic young experienced striker who is PL ready. Whether Dembele is their ultimate choice, who knows?

Maybe best to leave alone
