Crystal Palace offer £14m for Chalov

Crystal Palace have been mostly mentioned amongst media about the Wilfried Zaha situation. The Ivory Coast international could still leave the club this summer if a considerable offer comes in, but Palace are also thinking about reinforcements.

According to Sky Sports, Crystal Palace have submitted a £14m bid for CSKA Moscow striker Fedor Chalov. Talented Chalov joined CSKA Moscow in 2006, at the age of eight, and has been part of their first team for the past three years. He would be one of the two potentially targeted forwards, as media are claiming Roy Hodgson would want to sign Chalov and another striker.

Reportedly, clubs interested in Chalov are Monaco, Lazio and Valencia, but the London club are the first with a real offer for the 21-year-old. Chalov scored 17 goals and added seven assists in 37 games across all competitions last season for CSKA Moscow. He also scored 28 league goals in the three years he spent at the club.
