Crystal Palace look set to sign Celtic striker Odsonne Edouard on deadline day, according to Fabrizio Romano.
As to be expected, a number of Eagles supporters have been reacting to the update on social media.
According to Romano, the 23-year-old will be in south London on Tuesday to finalise a permanent move to Selhurst Park.
The transfer expert revealed that personal terms have been agreed upon and Edouard will undergo a medical on deadline day with a final fee in the region of €18m-€19m (£15.45m-£16.3m).
Palace wanted to bring two forwards to the club before the end of the month, and it seems as if they’ll be getting at least one in a man with whom they were first linked back in 2019.
Edouard has contributed to 125 goals in his 179 appearances as a Celtic player, scoring 86 and providing 39 assists so should add plenty of firepower to Patrick Vieira’s squad.
