Morocco international Bilal El Khannouss has emerged as a priority target for Premier League outfit Crystal Palace in the ongoing summer transfer window.
The 21-year-old, who currently plies his trade for Leicester City is considered as a potential replacements for Eberechi Eze, whose future at the club grows increasingly uncertain.
In the event of Eze’s proposed departure, the Eagles will consider the acquisition of Bilal El Khannouss.
With Eze agreeing terms and Arsenal readying bid, the England international could switch from Crystal Palace in the coming days. The forward has a release clause which the Premier League club are keen to meet.
However, Crystal Palace are putting contingency plans in place amid the proposed departure of the attacker.
Meanwhile, Palace face a stiff competition for the Morocco international, with RB Leipzig expressing interest in the forward amid Xavi Simons proposed move to Chelsea.
The Morocco international has been in the books of Leicester City since August 2024, with his current contract contracted set to expire in 2028.
