“Messi-like” The winger is more interested in signing with Tottenham than with Crystal Palace.
According to a recent report, despite Tottenham Hotspur’s interest, a gifted winger is not interested in moving to Crystal Palace this summer.
This summer, Tottenham has been connected to a wide range of players as Ange Postecoglou tries to restructure and put together a team that can contend for the top spot in the Premier League.
To make room for incomings, a number of summer departures are anticipated, with Emerson Royal being the most recent name connected to a departure.
The alleged target isn’t interested in moving to Palace, which has suddenly surfaced, offering the North Londoners a significant advantage in their pursuit of his signature.
Marcus Edwards is not keen on moving to Crystal Palace.
Crystal Palace is reportedly interested in Sporting winger Marcus Edwards, according to the Portuguese publication Record.
The “Messi-esque” forward has been linked to a return to his old team Tottenham in recent weeks, but Palace has now entered the equation, according to Birmingham World.
Nevertheless, it’s believed that Edwards would rather join Spurs than transfer to Selhurst Park this summer.
The 25-year-old would be thrilled to return to North London, but it’s unclear if Postecoglou’s management will be willing to pay his £25 million asking price.
Marcus Edwards data
The FBref data by Edwards are quite impressive to read.
When it comes to producing shots per ninety, he is within the top four percent of positional counterparts in Europe.
In addition, the 25-year-old’s progressive carry ranking puts him in the top five percent, which highlights his excellent dribbling skills.
Edwards seems prepared for a return to the Premier League after scoring six goals and dishing out nine assists for Sporting in the previous season.
