Crystal Palace considering Leicester City standout amidst Mateta exit discussions

Posted : 23 August 2023
Crystal Palace is currently exploring the option of acquiring Leicester's Nigerian striker, Kelechi Iheanacho, as a potential replacement for Jean-Philippe Mateta. 

The French forward has been gaining attention from clubs in Italy, Spain, and Germany, causing uncertainty about his future as the transfer deadline approaches next Friday.

Manager Roy Hodgson has identified the need for a new striker, especially after losing Wilfried Zaha to Galatasaray. 

The urgency for a forward has been heightened by Mateta's desire for a fresh challenge, prompted by his lackluster performance during his two-year tenure with the Eagles.

Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig have reportedly shown interest in Mateta, and a move for him seems probable before the transfer window closes. 

On the other hand, Leicester places significant value on Nigerian talent Iheanacho, particularly as they aim to swiftly return to the Premier League following their relegation to the Championship last season. 

However, the possibility of selling Iheanacho may arise if the right offer presents itself.
