Crystal Palace are now looking to sign an "absolutely incredible" attacking midfielder, who could be brought in as a replacement for Eberechi Eze, according to a report.

Eze is on the verge joining Tottenham after a verbal agreement was reached on a deal totalling £60million, centre-half Marc Guehi is moving closer to joining Liverpool for around £38m and Adam Wharton, one of the best midfielders in the business, could also be sold with Manchester United and Real Madrid linked with the 21-year-old in recent days.

A pair of trophy-toting Londoners meet Sunday when Chelsea welcome Crystal Palace to Stamford Bridge. The hosts won the Club World Cup this summer, giving manager Enzo Maresca and all of Chelsea’s supporters reason to believe their team could be back in competition for a Premier League title.

Crystal Palace could be without Eberechi Eze for their Premier League opener against Chelsea due to transfer speculation, according to reports.
