Crystal Palace could be very busy in the final few weeks of the summer transfer window.
Three players have arrived at Selhurst Park this summer already, and if they sell Marc Guehi to Newcastle United, more could follow.
The Magpies have sent in their third bid for the 24-year-old centre-back, with Palace holding out for a fee in the region of £65 million.
Apart from adding defenders, the Eagles could look to sign new midfielders as Oliver Glasner wants to build the squad to his own taste.
Crystal Palace eye move for Chelsea midfielder Carney Chukwuemeka
According to a report from South London Press, Crystal Palace are keeping a close eye on Chelsea midfielder Carney Chukwuemeka.
The Eagles could be ready to make a move for him this summer if the Blues make him available for transfer.
The 20-year-old midfielder has a release clause in the region of £40 million in his current Chelsea deal. Palace would be able to match that if they sell Guehi.
SLP claims that Palace sporting director Dougie Freedman is an admirer of Chukwuemeka and a potential move for him cannot be completely ruled out.
Carney Chukwuemeka would be smart signing for Crystal Palace
The young midfielder progressed through the youth ranks at Aston Villa and made 14 Premier League appearances before moving to Chelsea.
He has made 23 Premier League appearances in two seasons at the club at Stamford Bridge. He was playing well last season but suffered an injury-hit campaign with Chelsea.
Palace signed Adam Wharton from Blackburn Rovers last season, and he has proved to be a cracking addition for the Eagles. Glasner could be looking to bring in another exciting young talented midfielder alongside him.
The Eagles can present their success story while dealing with young talents and it could give them an edge when trying to convince Chukwuemeka to leave Stamford Bridge.
