Crystal Palace join Norwich in race to sign Maupay

Crystal Palace have joined Norwich City in the race to sign French striker Neal Maupay this summer.

Norwich have been linked with a move for Maupay, by The Evening Standard, alongside fellow newly-promoted sides Sheffield United and Aston Villa.

Now, Crystal Palace are said to be considering a swoop for Maupay as they look to strengthen their attack.

According to the Sutton and Croydon Guardian, Palace are weighing up a £30m swoop for Neal Maupay and Ollie Watkins from Brentford.

This will come as a blow to Norwich, who are looking to make their squad ready for a Premier League survival push next season.

Teemu Pukki and Dennis Srbeny are Norwich’s only senior forwards as it stands, with the latter having only scored twice in the league since joining in January 2018.

Maupay scored 28 goals in all competitions for Brentford, including 25 goals and eight assists in the Championship.
