Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace are said to be tracking Nigerian midfielder Seyi Olofinjana.

Premiership rivals West Brom are also believed to be after the Brann Bergen star, who was voted best foreign player in the Norwegian league last season

Olofinjana's agent said: "There are a few English clubs interested, both Premiership and First Division. Crystal Palace are one of those interested.

"If he moves to England it won't be for one year, it will be three, four or five years. You don't know what will happen."

There are rumours that the Eagles have made £2m bids for Sunderland striker Kevin Kyle and Crewe's Dean Ashton.
