Therefore, Crystal Palace have already started looking for replacements and as per David Ornstein, the Eagles are working on the deal to sign Leicester City star Bilal El Khannouss. Palace reportedly have seen their first bid worth £20m ($27m) get rejected for the 21-year-old as the Foxes are keen to hold onto the Moroccan midfielder.

Summer signings Mohammed Kudus and Joao Palhinha both starred for Tottenham as they fell agonisingly short of lifting their second trophy in the space of four months, but Frank added post-match that he needs reinforcements in the closing weeks of the window.

Tottenham are confident they have put together a deal for Eberechi Eze, 27, that will satisfy Crystal Palace, who value their England midfielder at £68m. (Teamtalk), external. Wa
