Palace’s Plan B
Crystal Palace are reportedly drawing up a succession plan for skipper Marc Guehi.
The centre-back is about to enter the final year of his contract and the Eagles are braced for a swarm of interest in Guehi throughout the summer.
It now seems Palace may have settled on a potential Guehi replacement.
According to The Telegraph, the club has explored a deal for Sporting defender Ousmane Diomande.
The 21-year-old is regarded as a serious talent and the report claims several of the Premier League’s biggest teams have watched him in action.
Diomande has two years left on his contract with Sporting.
