Maxence Lacroix has agreed to a £18 million contract with Crystal Palace, as you may have already heard. The Frenchman is scheduled to go to London for a medical examination. The Eagles are also anticipated to make the announcement of Eddie Nketiah’s £30 million move from Arsenal soon.
One more player might accompany Eddie Nketiah and Maxence Lacroix to Selhurst Park before Friday’s 11 p.m. deadline.
Crystal Palace has extended an offer to Rayan Cherki.
As the transfer deadline draws near, We Are Palace is aware that Lyon No. 18 Rayan Cherki is the subject of a proposal from Crystal Palace.
The France U23 international, who competed in the summer Olympics in Paris alongside Michael Olise and Jean-Philippe Mateta, must make a choice as he approaches the last 12 months of his contract.
Cherki, 21, is presently weighing his options after receiving an offer to join Everton, according to sources who spoke with We Are Palace.
Cherki, who was also wanted by PSG at the beginning of the summer, had a £17 million proposal accepted by Lyon for Fulham, but the Frenchman turned down the Cottagers.
Excellent Replacement for Michael Olise
Cherki’s attitude has already been questioned; Laurent Blanc even addressed these concerns in the media. However, if the forward can put in the necessary work at SE25, he would be a great option to replace Olise.
It’s interesting to note that Football London has drawn comparisons between Cherki and Olise, as both attackers have a tendency to create something extraordinary after cutting inside from the right into their more powerful left foot. As you can see by the footage below, the Lyon academy graduate has the dribbling ability and vision to be a real handful on that flank, providing the perfect foil for Eberechi Eze on the other side.
